Steven AntoineSally, you are an amazing person to work with. Although I haven’t worked with many recruitment agencies, I’d definitely have to say your hard work and persistent dedication is definitely something I appreciate from you. I know we’ll find something, and I can’t wait to celebrate with you over the phone when it happens. Thank you for your patience!
Ashley PourronSally is truly amazing! She not only responded to my resume quickly, but asked all the right questions in qualifying me for position. She has the best intentions for the company as well as the candidate. I appreciate Sally giving me the opportunity. I’ve been looking for a role in commercial real estate for some time now. Sally is well spoken and extremely personable. She is also is knowledgeable in many industries. I highly recommend Sally!
Evan GarrettLet me first start by saying that Sally Kennedy went above and beyond to find me the perfect fit for my next position. During the most difficult days the restaurant industry has seen, ever, Sally worked diligently to make sure my job search lasted 5 days. In these strange times, that’s unheard of. I can’t speak highly enough about Sally and the job she did for me. Sally is a rockstar and I will be forever grateful.
Adrienne KoclanisLet me start by saying I have never worked with a recruiting firm before, and I was pleasantly surprised with how wonderful this opportunity was. Sally was courteous and professional from the beginning all the way to the end. She prepared for several interviews with the same company and showed true positivity whenever speaking to me. She even followed up with me after I had already been hired, just to check in and wish me luck on my first day. I would highly recommend not only Sally Kennedy, but Patrice & Associates for those looking to get back in the hospitality industry after a devastating 13 months.
