Chris S. says he highly recommends Pragya Paramita for her exceptional professionalism.

 

I highly recommend Pragya Paramita of Patrice and Associates for her exceptional professionalism, strategic insight, and disciplined execution throughout the recruitment process. Pragya distinguished herself by taking a consultative approach—investing time to understand my experience, leadership style, and long-term objectives. She also provided valuable guidance in refining my resume, ensuring it was both targeted and impactful in a competitive market. Her communication was timely, precise, and proactive. She consistently stayed ahead of each stage of the process, providing clarity, alignment, and confidence from initial engagement through final placement. As a result, I secured a management position with Il Fornaio that aligns well with my background and career direction. The achievement was a marked improvement after a month of searching all the major job sites myself with no significant progress. Pragya operates with a high level of professionalism and accountability, and I would strongly recommend her to both organizations and candidates seeking a strategic recruiting partner.

Thank you again,

Chris S.
