Thank you

Dave Morrison

Speaking with Bruce Leininger was absolutely Amazing! 

Bruce was very informative, inspirational, and kind.  He helped me prepare for my initial interview by conducting one on one question/answer scenarios and other techniques.  Bruce assisted in the revision of my resume, creating a cover letter, coached me on questions to ask, proper techniques to respond to questions and so on and so on.  He was amazing!  He was very motivational and inspiring.  Encouraging me throughout the entire process.  Bruce kept contact with me and check on my progress consistently.  I love what Patrice & Associates is doing!  Thank you, Bruce, for all you and your team do!  Your company is amazing!  I hope I could be a help to you as well one day.

Thank you,

Nicole Brown

Bruce Leininger is THE MAN!

My name is Youssouf, and I wanted to share my experience with Mr. Bruce Leininger. From the moment I received my first call to my last conversation with Mr. Leininger, he has been nothing short of phenomenal, words can't describe how much I genuinely appreciate all of his time and help. He made each step of the entire process seamless. He went above and beyond to assist me on any questions and concerns and practically walked me through every step to ensure I got an offer. He's beyond easy to talk to, he has plenty of knowledge and insight that helped me with any questions I had, and he gave me the time to help guide me through any processes I wasn't sure how to navigate. He was very great with communicating and making sure I had a full understanding and insight on every job applied to. He's also very efficient, he made sure I had a gotten an offer in the time frame mentioned. Again, I'm beyond thankful for all is help and wish nothing but the best in all his endeavors!        

Sincerely,

Youssouf Faty

Thank you all for everything Bruce Leininger!

Bruce Leininger is an exceptional and irreplaceable asset to Practice & Associates.  Bruce took the time and really get to know me, my passions and personality.  He understood my wants when it came to my career move .  He took the time to talk to me and build a relationship with me.  Bruce had a lot of patience and was always in communication with me in regards to different opportunities.  I respected and appreciated his advice and input.  I will always be grateful to Bruce, as he listened with all his heart.  I will always remember what Bruce has done for my family and I and I will make sure that everyone I know who wants a career change only talks to Bruce!                  

Respectfully,

Sami Simaan

Thank you for helping me Bruce Leininger!

To be honest, I couldn’t be happier having someone help navigate me in changing jobs because for one, that's a crazy thing sometimes. You know the current system your in and are comfortable, but you want something more that's why your looking for a new job no matter the reason. But having someone help you and give you advice for real life is even more valuable. Mr. Bruce Leininger has been the biggest helping hand I could have ever encountered, great person and businessman! I’d also call him a great friend through all of this process.          

Much Gratitude,

William
