Sam F. says that David Kohlasch embodies professionalism, compassion, and excellence in every way!I honestly don’t even have the words to fully express how grateful I am for David. David is by far the best recruiter I have ever worked with in my entire career. From our very first conversation, he treated me not just as a candidate, but as a person with goals, concerns, and dreams for the future.
David went above and beyond in every single interaction — guiding me with care, offering encouragement when I needed it most, and making me feel completely supported throughout the process. He made what is often a stressful and uncertain journey feel exciting and filled with possibility. His kindness, patience, and genuine belief in me gave me confidence I didn’t even know I had. Also, I would like to mention, that David took extra time to make sure I had a full picture of the company I am joining, not just a generic job description, but insight to their culture and leadership that only someone who cares would take the time to do and say.
Thanks to David, I found not just a new job, but the right opportunity — one that I’m truly thrilled about. I can honestly say I could not have done this without him. Patrice & Associates should feel proud to have someone like David representing the company. He embodies professionalism, compassion, and excellence in every way. He truly cares and makes me want to go that extra mile at this new opportunity on his behalf for what he has done for me.
With heartfelt appreciation, Sam F.
