What Our Clients & Candidates Say
I felt very comfortable throughout the interview process. Alissa and Scott were approachable and professional. I feel moving forward, that I will be set up for success.
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.
Very good I liked everything about how it was handled. Scott was great with keeping me informed and updates.
I have worked in HR for over 25 years, 10 of which were in the pharmaceutical industry which is highly reliant on outsourcing recruitment. Kristin was the best recruiter that I have ever worked with. She was highly organized and systematic. I loved the tools that she used to communicate to both myself and the candidates. The format she uses for presenting candidates was very clear and provided the details that were relevant to me.
I could not have been more pleased with the experience of working with Kristin and Horizon Hospitality as a whole. The database of candidates that you have compiled lead to prompt identification of quality candidates.
Horizon made the hiring process seamless. The recruiter was able to take the criteria for the position that I was filling and present several candidates each of whom met the specifications. I would not have found any of the candidates that I interviewed by using websites such as Indeed . My recruiter was attentive without being overbearing and he provided valuable feedback when asked his opinion. Horizon handled the difficult part of the interview process which is dealing with the rejection of candidates who weren’t the perfect fit. Horizon handled the hiring process from beginning to end in a professional and painless manner. I will use this company again if the need arises.
Horizon Hospitality assisted us in the search for an Executive Chef. They were a pleasure to work with and presented several qualified candidates, one of whom we hired. They took the time to understand our needs and have a thorough and professional approach towards recruitment.
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.
My first contact with Horizon Hospitality was an email and the response was almost immediate — and they took the time to call, not just respond via email. It has been a great relationship since! Once we retained Horizon, Dave Nolan did spend a day and a half here in the Pacific Northwest meeting with us and touring the area to get a personal feel for the “lay of the land.” I feel very lucky to have ‘found’ Horizon Hospitality and am happy to recommend them to others in our industry.
Good experience overall.
I was happy that Horizon could pull such a wide range of qualified candidates in such a short turn around time, even over a holiday weekend. We were provided with enough candidates to be selective with our interview choices and were able to interview enough potential candidates to make a strategic hire that we are excited to begin working with.
