I was in search of a Management Position with a notable concept in Las Vegas; and being fairly new to this city, I came to realize that like most busy cities, it’s all about ‘Who You Know.’ If it weren’t for Amanda Hebert of Patrice & Associates, I’d likely still be looking. Amanda reached out to me, and we had extensive conversations about my resume, my education, and my work experience. She was professional, prompt, easy to talk to, and very thorough. She had a list of clients that were just my style. Amanda set up interviews, encouraged me along the way, and followed up afterward. Her strategic placement, and attention to detail made for easy interviews. I was so impressed with the brand, as I was familiar with their concepts in Los Angeles. The team made me feel welcome from the start, and saw my experience as valuable. Next thing I know, I received my offer letter at the end of the week! Having Amanda in my corner felt like having a big sister on the other end of the phone. Her warmth, and genuine excitement for me meant the world to me. Many thanks to Patrice & Associates for having the kind of recruiter who cares about their clients’ success. With Gratitude, and Thanks, -Nikki NilssönAmanda helps Nikki find a job!
