Testimonials
What the Hospitality Industry Says About Us
Thanks for your teams support over the last couple months. This was our first time using a recruiting firm and your crew did not disappoint. We look forward to working together again in the future.
The experience with everyone at the company was extremely positive and I am delighted to work with folks who truly care about the needs of their clients. They were very thorough in the pre-screening process and were 100% focused on finding just the right candidate for me.
We had a really hard time finding qualified candidates during our most recent search, and turned to Horizon in an attempt to speed up the process. They somehow managed to get several quality prospects through their connections in this area (SWFL). It didn’t take long to identify the person we wanted to hire and we are very pleased with the results!
I loved the way Horizon Hospitality presented its candidates and how fast we accomplished our common goal. Great experience overall!
In my first experience with Horizon … the team took the time to understand exactly what we needed. I was only sent great candidates and chose one that I could have never found without their help!
I was very pleased from start to finish. The whole process was seamless. From my first conversation with Horizon, they listened to what we were looking for in our applicant. They asked great questions to clarify to make sure they understood what qualities we wanted in an applicant. We talked about the interviewing and selection process while not typical, Horizon did a great job in communicating with three of us on the candidates. They followed up after we interviewed candidates to help fine tune his selection process. I enjoyed working with Horizon and will reach out to them next time we have an open position.
The professionalism and customer care that I received from Horizon Hospitality was phenomenal. They were able to find us a great Executive Housekeeper candidate in two weeks. They communicate the process the entire time and made it a point to help us find a perfect candidate.
We just completed our search for a new CEO here in Monterey, Calif. Horizon Hospitality and Dave Nolan did an excellent job in securing top candidates and finding ‘the’ candidate for our convention and visitors bureau’s top spot. Our timeline was met with efficiency and the overall experience – from interviewing top-quality candidates to working through pre-employment screening – was all top notch. Our volunteer leadership greatly appreciated the work and results Horizon and Dave provided. I would recommend Horizon for any executive search opportunity.
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.
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.
