Testimonials
What the Hospitality Industry Says About Us
I have really enjoyed working with the Horizon team on the recruiting/placement of TWO candidates for our Marketing team. We really were only looking for one, but with the incredibly high quality of candidates and the EXACT experience and knowledge we were seeking, we cannot pass up 2 great people that were presented to us. They really took the time to learn our company and research exactly what we need. You would think that the recruiter had worked for our company for years the way he has jumped in and handled this process for us. I can’t wait to work with the Horizon team on future key positions!
Ryan has been a pleasure to work with. His response time on candidates, questions we have, and the entire process have been excellent. We understand recruiting in this small area isn’t always easy, but he has worked really hard to meet our needs.
Horizon was amazing. So responsive easy to be open and honest with built a great relationship which made the experience flow really well.
We worked with a few other recruitment companies before working with yours and your company by far was the best.
Over the past three seasons, we have used the services of Horizon Hospitality. In each of our encounters, I have found them to be professional, responsive and highly communicative in all phases of the process. Candidates are well-vetted based on the criteria given and presented in a timely fashion. When finalizing the details, I have found Horizon to be diplomatic and of great value in closing the agreement with candidates.
I absolutely would recommend the Horizon Team. Our success has come from setting clear expectations and parameters of exactly what we are looking for in our potential chefs and managers. Scott and his team sat with me to learn about the company, what we did and did not like.
We couldn’t be happier with the process. We were provided with super qualified candidates. I am so glad that we took the time and made the investment to use Horizon Hospitality. I think we will look back in a few years and identify our decision to partner with you as truly pivotal for our business. It’s fun when your building a startup to be able to tease out specific decisions and moments in time that decidedly impacted success.
You spent an inordinate amount of time upfront understanding our operation, needs, goals and organizational culture. Furthermore, Horizon continually met all of their deadlines throughout the engagement without exception. I have worked with numerous professional search firms throughout my career and I can honestly say the service we received from Horizon was second to none.
I haven’t officially started my employment with Horizon Hospitality, but the interactions I’ve had with every person up to this point have been incredibly positive. I look forward to a long and profitable tenure with Horizon Hospitality.
In these times of unforeseen labor challenges, having a dependable and reputable talent acquisition partner like Horizon Hospitality is critical for our teams, clients and organization. Horizon Hospitality took time to learn about our culture, values and what needs we truly have in each open role. This seamless process allows our leaders and associates to focus on the business at hand, while knowing that their team is working tirelessly behind the scenes to recruit and vet top tier talent for our organization.
