Franchise Ownership can change your life. I talk to lots of people over 50 that are looking at business ownership options because priorities in life change. They want more control, work/life balance, and to create wealth and a legacy for themselves. Of all the reasons to start at business after […]
1. Make a plan – Time and time again you hear, “make a plan and stick to it.” It’s not just something motivational speakers and political candidates say, it’s actually really helpful in your job search process too. By setting aside time each day and having deadlines for yourself, you create accountability […]
I find it interesting how restaurants are moving more into the seafood category on their menus. Living my life on the Chesapeake Bay I can’t bring myself to order “Maryland Crab Cakes” in another state … like the midwest. Not so long ago those who didn’t live near the water […]
“Lifestyle dieters” want choices in where they eat which often makes it difficult for restaurants to recruit managers that understand that concept. Just when gluten-free has begun to be manageable for most QSRs to safely serve for both customers who must refrain from gluten, along with those who simply opt […]
As a recruitment agency we see all kinds of situations. It has been amazing to watch what people do on interviews. I had a candidate that was interviewing with Panera Bread who walked into the interview with a Starbucks coffee! There was a candidate who was finishing up chewing his […]
Throughout the years of recruiting, I’ve seen the “style” become more and more casual. When interviewing for a job you have make sure you “look” the part of the job you are applying for. It should go without saying that the interview is the first and only chance you’ll get […]
As a career coach for 30 years, I’ve heard all the stories from recruiters about people going on interviews. Recruitment is one thing, now you have the interview and there are many aspects to think about. Your body language can say a lot more about your feelings than you might […]

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,

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 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.
