I have nothing but good things to say about Helen. She initially contacted me for a different role after a short talk; she contacted the company and told them great things about me. She checked in with me during every step of the process, even after I was hired, she called just to see how I was doing.
At one point I tried to compliment her efforts in helping me, but she did not want any credit for her role in making it happen, but it was because of her. She went above and beyond to help connect me with the company.
Based on my interaction with Helen, I can tell that she is a person that is passionate about what she does. In her eyes she sees it as helping others and not as a job that she gets paid to do.
Thank you,
Francisco

I have been employed for many non-stop years until the beginning of this current year when I got laid off for the first time in my life. Needless to say, applying and interviewing was not something I had done in a very long time. I was not getting any good results, and my opportunities were not looking good. I was seriously lost and discouraged. Luckily for me, I was found by a recruiter, Helen Nourai, who saw something in me that no one else did. She interviewed me, and she was very easy to talk to and understood where I was coming from. She felt I would be a good fit for a company she was representing. Her help with editing my resumé and preparing me for each set of interviews was immeasurable. Needless to say, my interviews all went well, and I was hired shortly after. I am currently halfway through my training, and I am having a great time. She set me up with a great company! I feel like I will be successful here, and I owe it all to her. I don’t plan on losing a job again, but if I do, she will be the first person I call.
Thank you, Patrice and Associates, and thank you Helen!
Sincerely,
Tony P.
