Almost every month the Jobs Report is great news for recruiting. As the labor pool shrinks because unemployment is so low, the need to find top talent is often outsourced to Executive Search agencies. Additionally, the baby boomers are starting to retire and the millennial’s are having fewer children and […]
What is this world coming to! I have seen many changes since I started Patrice & Associates without an internet. Our big innovation was fax machines! You may have seen this video on the internet. Think about the last time you interviewed a candidate. What was your first initial reaction […]
Franchise Ownership can change your life. I talk to lots of people over 50 that are looking at business ownership options because priorities in life change. They want more control, work/life balance, and to create wealth and a legacy for themselves. Of all the reasons to start at business after […]
1. Make a plan – Time and time again you hear, “make a plan and stick to it.” It’s not just something motivational speakers and political candidates say, it’s actually really helpful in your job search process too. By setting aside time each day and having deadlines for yourself, you create accountability […]
I find it interesting how restaurants are moving more into the seafood category on their menus. Living my life on the Chesapeake Bay I can’t bring myself to order “Maryland Crab Cakes” in another state … like the midwest. Not so long ago those who didn’t live near the water […]
“Lifestyle dieters” want choices in where they eat which often makes it difficult for restaurants to recruit managers that understand that concept. Just when gluten-free has begun to be manageable for most QSRs to safely serve for both customers who must refrain from gluten, along with those who simply opt […]
As a recruitment agency we see all kinds of situations. It has been amazing to watch what people do on interviews. I had a candidate that was interviewing with Panera Bread who walked into the interview with a Starbucks coffee! There was a candidate who was finishing up chewing his […]
Throughout the years of recruiting, I’ve seen the “style” become more and more casual. When interviewing for a job you have make sure you “look” the part of the job you are applying for. It should go without saying that the interview is the first and only chance you’ll get […]
As a career coach for 30 years, I’ve heard all the stories from recruiters about people going on interviews. Recruitment is one thing, now you have the interview and there are many aspects to think about. Your body language can say a lot more about your feelings than you might […]
It was a great experience working with Hamoon Piroozmand!
His professionalism and dedication surpassed my wildest dreams with meeting my goal of a new career. Hamoon provided me with tips and superior advice to be prepared for my interviews. He has a great understanding in guiding candidates to be hired and also supports you in all your doubts and needs.
Thank you so much Hamoon!
Thanks,
Jose
Mr. Piroozmand really cares and took the time to coach me through the process.
Hamoon Piroozmand is hands down the best recruiter that I have ever worked with thus far in my career. Hamoon did a really great job of making sure that the fit was right between the company I got hired with and myself by getting to know me and what I wanted out of the next company. His passion for his work really shined when I was going through the interview process. Hamoon was always responsive as well. I was also interviewing with other companies at the time, outside of the recruiting that Hamoon did, and applied the techniques that I had discussed with Hamoon, I got final offers on all interviews. I took the offer that Hamoon presented me with, even though the other concepts paid more because I trust the fit. Overall, Hamoon will ask you to do things that other recruiters will ask you to do, but there was accountability and follow up throughout the whole process and if you're serious about getting the job, follow his plan. It works!
Sincerely,
Kristin Barrett
It was a true pleasure to have such a knowledgeable, kind, and personable person as Hamoon as my recruiter. I appreciate his effort to ensure the job position was a perfect match for me and the restaurant team. I look forward to joining my new team very soon and I'm so excited about it. Hamoon did an outstanding job coaching, mock interviews, redoing my resume, and ensuring that I was thoroughly prepared for every interview and On The Job Evaluation. I highly recommend Hamoon as he makes job searching easy.

Hamoon was the best!
I have worked with different agencies in the past but have to say that Hamoon was one of the best in ages that I have a worked with. He was very nice, very knowledgeable about the companies he represents, he gets you ready for your interviews, and he checks in with you after every interview to find out how it went. I will definitely be recommending you to all the people that I know!
Sincerely
