I 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!

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
