Helena was wonderful throughout the whole process. I started my job search far sooner than necessary (3 months before moving back to Boston) and she walked me through the necessary steps to prepare for the submission of my resume. She was very responsive and helpful with answering my questions and setting up communication between myself and Cafe Nero and making sure that we stayed to an appropriate timeline. She made the whole interview process a breeze and helped build my confidence in preparation as well. It was really nice to work with someone that not only cared about placing you with a company but also cared about your transition into that company and overall satisfaction with the process and job. Thanks, Heather Pew

I had the wonderful privilege of working with Helena Nash from Patrice and Associates. From the very beginning and from my first conversation with Helena, I knew I had somebody that what is this me in finding the proper position. Helena was very professional and helpful, throughout my process of procuring a general manager job with JP licks. Helena asked me the right questions, and supplied me with educated answers to help me find the position that I desired.I felt she went out of her way by helping me make my resume look more professional, her professional tips that she sent along to me before my interviews, along with the conversations that I had before and after my interviews, truly made me feel like I had the right person on my side, and in my corner. I would highly recommend Helena Nash and Patrice and associates to help them, in either finding the proper job or finding the proper employee for their company. I feel privileged to have had them help me in such a difficult task in finding the right job and position for me, and truly feel I would still be out there looking for a job if it was not for them. Sincerely and with warm regards, Mitzzy Picardo
