Read moreI am excited about this new journey and so grateful for Tom Bass
When I first applied for the position, I had no idea what I was applying for. I received a phone call a few days after applying and Tom was so pleasant, he scheduled my phone interview and confirmed it with a text message. The day of my phone interview, he made it so easy to talk to him. I told him what I was looking for and in return he told me what the job was. He gave me options and went to work for me. In no time I received a phone call from the employer and the ball started rolling. Tom stayed in the loop the entire time making sure everything I wanted to happen was happening. He understood my needs and delivered.So Grateful!

Tom did a wonderful job. He listened to what I wanted and understood that there was only one company I wanted to work for and through persistence made it happen. I am now beginning my third week of training and everything is going very well. Tom has also been wonderful to email and call to check up on me in my new adventure. I will be referring anyone that I know that might be searching for a job to Tom. Thank you again, Rene' EllingtonTom Bass helps a skeptic!
We can find YOU a Job in the Hospitality Industry
Chelsie Greenway, recruiter in the Greenville, SC office, was a excellent help to me throughout the entire process of helping me find a new career job. From the very beginning she took her time to learn and understand my current situation & my wants and needs as far as moving on to something new. Over some time and weighing out options the opportunity to become a potential fit with Bad Daddy’s Burger Bar presented itself. Once I decided to go for it, Chelsie assisted in preparing me to give myself the best possible chance of obtaining the position. 3 interviews later I was offered the Kitchen Manager position with Bad Daddy’s And was able to start 3 weeks after accepting! I appreciate Chelsie so much for her help, phone calls, emails, and text messages of encouragement as I pursued this opportunity. She was a pleasure working with and I’d recommend her services to anyone looking to make the next big move in their Foodservice journey. Kwindarius Sapp
