Edward F. says Patricia treated him with professionalism and kindness.
Before working with Patrice & Associates, I was looking for the right opportunity that aligned with my experience in hospitality operations, leadership, and training. I wanted a position where I could continue growing professionally while finding a company and culture that felt like the right long-term fit. From the very first minute Patricia Mayorca spoke with me, she was absolutely amazing. She immediately created a positive and genuine connection that made me feel comfortable and
confident in the process. Patricia took the time to truly understand my background, my goals, and what I was looking for in my next role. Her communication was excellent throughout every step, and she consistently followed up, offered guidance, and made sure I was well prepared. What stood out most was the way she treated me with professionalism, kindness, and sincere
encouragement. Thanks to Patricia and the Patrice & Associates team, I am excited to begin a new opportunity that I believe is a great match for my skills and career goals. I’m especially excited about joining a new organization where I can contribute my leadership experience, continue developing teams, and make a positive impact from day one. I truly appreciate the outstanding support I received, and I would absolutely recommend Patricia and Patrice & Associates to anyone looking for a recruiter who genuinely cares about their success.
Warm regards,
Edward Fernandez
