What Our Clients & Candidates Say
Horizon Hospitality has been a huge help for our company, as we are growing at a rapid pace and need to find highly qualified candidates very quickly. We made a call out to Horizon and within a couple of days, they were working on our roles and sending us great candidates! We’ve had great success with them thus far and look forward to our continued working relationship.
Horizon Hospitality has been a true partner to us in finding the right people for our organization. They really got to know us and our needs. The search process was exemplary from soup to nuts. I wouldn’t trust any other firm to help us find great hospitality professionals.
I truly appreciate the professionalism and thorough service we received. The process was simple and we were given great guidance all along the way. This was a critical hire for our company and I feel you gave the search the detailed attention it deserved. We would definitely use Horizon Hospitality again!
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.
Horizon Hospitality handled our search with a great sense of urgency. Always professional and timely. Always looking for feedback on candidate quality. I would work with Horizon again, for sure!
Alissa was truly wonderful to work with throughout the entire process. She brought such a warm, professional, and positive presence to every interaction, while also staying incredibly organized and results-driven. She made the hiring experience feel seamless and was always communicative, thoughtful, and proactive along the way. Most importantly, she genuinely cared about helping us find the best possible candidate and was a fantastic partner throughout the search. We are incredibly grateful to have had her in our corner and would absolutely recommend working with her.
Horizon Hospitality was very quick and thorough in the presentation of candidates. All candidates had the credentials in our search and were presented with the information that was necessary to fill that role.
Good experience overall.
Horizon Hospitality is a quality recruitment firm for the hospitality industry. They found us a chef, sous chef and a brewmaster that has vastly improved the quality of my brewpub. I recommend them wholeheartedly.
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.
