What Our Clients & Candidates Say
Working with Horizon could not have been easier. We were in a time crunch to find a GM candidate and our search was going nowhere. I contacted Horizon and within 24 hours we were on the phone discussing our needs. Within 48 hours, I had candidates in my inbox and interviews scheduled. Horizon provided a variety of candidates that were well qualified with diverse backgrounds. We were very impressed by them all. Within a week, we had an accepted offer and a candidate ready to work for us. The experience could not have been any more seamless.
Horizon Hospitality continually provides excellent candidates for our business. They are engaged from the start, getting a thorough understanding of the positions we are recruiting for, and then screening effectively to make sure we just have the best to choose from. Because of their diligence and understanding of our needs, we don’t have to conduct nearly as many interviews to find the right people for our open positions. I would highly recommend Horizon as a business partner for anyone’s recruiting needs in the hospitality industry.
Horizon Hospitality went above and beyond in our search for a new GM. Through many unforeseen circumstances (especially COVID), they completed the search, provided outstanding candidates to choose from and helped us to secure the finalist. Scott was very professional and thorough – always returning calls promptly and predicting our needs as we went through the process. I would highly recommend their firm for your club needs.
I enjoyed working with Horizon. We will gladly use Horizon again if we are in need of exceptional hospitality talent!
From the first time I spoke with Horizon, our recruiter was engaged, helpful, and timely. He delivered excellent candidates and we ended up with a great hire.
I enjoyed the time working with your team. They were always available – nights, weekends, etc. and did a great job understanding the circumstances of the role. Should the need arise in the future, we would definitely consider using Horizon again. If you’re ever out in Vegas, let me know. It would be great for you to experience the restaurant.
Horizon Hospitality has been a great partner to work with. Not only do they bring qualified candidates to the table, they help simplify the entire process from the initial search and coordinating interviews to background checks and hiring. They take the time to ask great questions and really listen to your needs in order to find the right candidates that are a great fit for all parties. Leigh Ann and her team are fantastic to work with and I appreciate them all.
Excellent experience!
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.
It was such a pleasure working with the team at Horizon Hospitality. They found us a great candidate in the exact time frame they promised. They’re service was excellent and they made the entire process simple. Thanks especially to Jennifer and Leigh Ann for a job well done. Will absolutely work with them again in the future.
