I was contacted by Matt Fried while I moved down to FL from NY. What a great experience. We had several phone call conversations while I was looking for a new job after my relocation. I sent him my... resume and we discussed techniques on how to refine it and make it pop. I never got the feeling of him pressuring me to take any job, and we discussed things, what I wanted, pros and cons etc. At a time where most people are nervous or stressed navigating interviews, it was nice to just have a conversation sometimes and get feedback. I would recommend using Matt or his company if you are searching for your next career. Thanks for your time and advice Matt!!read more

M Grill provided the best covid dining experience my fiance and I have ever had. There was a tent set up outside decorated beautifully with market lights. Upon check-in, the host took our temperature... and provided little bags for our masks. Each person was required to wear their mask at all times except when at his or her table. All tables were at least 6-ft apart and in addition to masks, staff also wore face shields. It's safe to say we felt very safe at M-Grill and they were taking great precautions.M Grill was one of the few places that didn't dwindle in quality during the pandemic. Each salad bar item was fresh, each hot item was delicious and each meat was tender, juicy, warm and flavorful. Every item that was available previously is still available now (only difference is that the servers come around with carts to serve the salad bar and hot items). All the food was delicious and quality great!read more

Two words: Kevin OlsonKevin was on his game from the email and phone call on day 1. Super easy going. After, unfortunately, the previous head hunter I worked for was having trouble finding me... anything for 2 months I ventured on my own. When Kevin called, I did tell him I had some interviews lined up and he was super cool about it. “Hey good luck and call and let me know how it goes.” Most recruiters just move on. Kevin emailed me in between interviews for updates.After those interviews didn’t pan out, I called Kevin and he already had a company to talk about. When we discussed the place, Kevin was able to level with me and let me know it may not be a good fit. I’ve worked with recruiters where they just try to get you a job so they can move on. It was awesome that the few conversations we had via email and phone that Kevin could sense it. So I followed hi advice and we moved on.Not even a few days later Kevin talked to me about City BBQ. He sent in my resume and had me available for a phone interview. The next day he called me to tell me they want to do in person and helped set that up. Kevin was able to communicate the feedback from City as Positive and I was offered the position.In the midst of this pandemic I lost my job in late April. The aforementioned mentioned recruiter couldn’t find anything for two months. With Kevin, he literally found me a job in a matter of weeks and that’s including the interim interviews I was doing before.Kevin’s positive message in a time where I was feeling discouraged with the pandemic was so motivational. He didn’t rush to find me any job. Kevin did the research based off my personality and background and found me a job that I’m culturally in sync with as well as a company that’s growing steadily and is going to survive these pandemic waves.Sorry to be so long winded but I had to do Mubarak best to do Kevin justice for the funk he got me out of. Kevin is laid back, down to earth, but driven to find a great job for his client and the follow up even after getting the job is amazing.I appreciate you Kevin. I haven’t been unemployed since 1995 as a kid in high school. So these 3 months were brutal and discouraging. But you helped me find an opportunity to grow with an outstanding company and helped me get my swag back.Much love brother.Brian Logsdonread more

My name is David Lyng and I am a working chef. Throughout the years, I have not had any issues finding jobs, as I’ve been able to relocate to where the work is. However, it has had an adverse... effect on my resume. Restaurant companies see the traveling and get confused, making it difficult to explain outside of a one-on-one conversation.Within the past year I’ve been having struggles with my move back to Chicago, due to the ongoing question of whether to go with a company on promise of growth, salary, quality of life, innovation, etc.... Which burnt me out of my last position as head chef for a particular company.This time around I really wanted to do it right and I have taken my time finding the right fit for my next position. After speaking with several other requirement company’s and going on what I felt were forced interviews, I was coming up with nothing and it almost seemed as though some companies had their minds made up before even seeing and speaking to me.In the past I’ve had experience with EHS in both hiring and some recruitment prospects and at my previous experiences have been ok, but nothing I’d say separated EHS apart from anyone else.After reaching out via Linkedin, I was set up with David Tantillo, who first established a base relationship to better understand my moral compass, my objectives, and my knowledge base to figure out what roll I would be best suited for. We spoke about many opportunities and there was no sugar coating or smoke and mirrors, at least none that I could see on my end. We were able to work around schedules fairly easily and the process seemed to have a good pace to it as I was kept up to speed on a need to know basis. He did a good job telling me the important details and leaving the BS out of the conversations.At the end of the process we found a dilemma in an opposing interest. One company, I had found through another recruiter, was looking to pull the trigger and finalize the offer. However they are known to pay high, work you to the bone, and had little room for growth. The offer David had brokered was slightly less money, however, the quality of life was at the forefront of all of my interviews. They genuinely seemed to care about who I am as a person and as a chef. Also the room for growth is immense which I think those factors were key in the decision making.As the process was coming to a close David took the time to help me way in the options. While he could have very well came across offended, as I kept him in the dark in regards to the other opportunity until the very end of the interview process, he did not. He spoke to me with a completely unbiased disposition and helped me weight out the pros and cons of either scenario.After looking at it with an open mind and clear thoughts, the company David sent me to did make an offer and I happily accepted. All in all, this process went on for the better part of 3 months. It involved 15 interviews, 5 restaurant companies, 3 recruiters, countless internet searches, I've told my story to more people then I’d care to count, and David’s loyalty never swayed.If I ever find myself in this position again he will be the first phone call I make. And while hiring staff I will consider his candidates as a higher priority.EHS has me as a client and friend for life.Thank you again for everything,David Lyngread more

I worked with Kevin Olsen and he was great! I moved to Chicago a while back and was hoping to start my career in the restaurant business. I have my degrees in unrelated fields and didn’t have much... experience but I am very passionate about restaurant and hospitality. Kevin believed in me and he made me believe in myself too! He got me so many interviews and he was always there to support me. I finally got a job in a great company thanks to Kevin and EHS!!!read more

Kevin was my recruiter for nearly 4 months during my employment search. He was fantastic during the process. He truly cared about more than his job but about me and finding the right fit for me. It... was a long process but he was patient and very understanding. Kevin had great communication with me (sometimes even daily 🙂). So beyond happy to have connected with him and will continue to keep in touch with him in the future. Thank you for your help!read more

Kevin was incredible! I've never worked with a recruiter before and he made this entire experience a piece of cake. He presented me with a position that I was hesitant about but he encouraged me to... just meet with them and have a conversation. After the meeting, my whole perspective had changed and I was very excited about the opportunity. I highly recommend Kevin to anyone looking for a new adventure!read more

A big thank you to Kristen Elftmann at EHS for the patient, help, encouragement and support over the last 5 weeks. Kristen understood my urgency to find the "right fit" "right job" but never forced a... particular direction. Her suggestions were accurate and timely. Kristen encouraged my own research on a company or position, it was never a "Take my word for it". Kristen wanted my decisions to be mine. Kristen worked with me, but i felt like she worked for me 🙂 and in the end and most importantly, never left me feeling alone, disconnected or out of the loop, her follow up was constant and timely. You should call her! Kristen, Thank you.read more

Ernest Scalzi (Owner of SoCal EHS Office) truly helped me revitalize my career in hospitality.A short back-story:I was searching for that next big job - the dream job. I sent countless resumes to... employers on my own, using platforms such as Craigslist and others to get connected. For several weeks, it was obviously not making the impact I had hoped for. I was becoming discouraged. Then, along came Ernest.Ernest spent his initial efforts getting to know me on a human level and that is what sets him apart from others. He paired that with his ability to understand my talent level and what I am capable of within the field. He worked day and night to land me that next big dream job in what seemed to only take him a matter of days, while again I had been sending out my resume for weeks on my own.Not only did I get connected with an employer very quickly, but I got that exact job. A big reason is because of Ernest and the EHS group. He helped me tune up my resume, and taught me a lot of things along the way. It was a very refreshing experience.So, not only did that job work out very well but I got promoted quickly - just like he said. His efforts didn’t stop there, and I can’t stress this last part enough. He never stopped checking in on me. He continued his contact with me throughout training, afterwards, and throughout the entire first year of employment.If you are looking for this type of incredible experience I would highly recommend working with Ernest and the SoCal EHS group. To this day we still stay in touch.Thank you!Nicholas Hread more

EHS is amazing. I had applied for a position with a restaurant that they recruit for. I was contacted by Mark Rivera. He explained in full detail about the position, and the pay structure. He... prepared my resume for the client and set up the interview. Day of the first interview Mark reaches out to me to wish me luck. He contacted me again after the interview to let me know that I was moving on to the second phase of the interview process and who I’d be interviewing with. Day of the second interview, Mark again reached out to wish me luck, and gave me some great words of encouragement. After a day or so after the final interview Mark again contacted me to congratulate me, and to inform me that they wanted to offer me a position. I was ecstatic to say the least. It wasn’t just a job he was setting up for me it was a career position with massive growth potential. It was exactly what I was seeking as I had recently lost my restaurant that I owned in the most devastating fire to hit California. For the first time since that tragic loss of my business I felt I was on the career path I wanted. EHS, and primarily Mark, went above and beyond to place me what I hope to be my last job I will ever have. Thank you EHS and Mark for placing me in the right place for me to excel in and grow as a manager.read more

I have been in the hospitality industry for over 30 years. Never have I had luck with or like working with recruiters. I was contacted by Mark Fenton from EHS Hospitality. After our conversation... Mark convinced me to give him a opportunity. Within a short time Mark helped me secure a great job with with a very well known and established restaurant group. Mark made the process very easy and actually somewhat enjoyable. If you ever had a doubt about working with a recruiting firm I highly suggest giving EHS a chance and working with MarkYou wont be sorry.read more

I had the pleasure of working with Larry Seedorf. This man knows what he is doing. I gave him my basic information with my resume and he went hard to work. He fought every step of the way until... mission was accomplished. He educated me on interviewing skills and prepped me really will for working interviews. I've been in the this industry over 15 years and have never worked with a hospitality group that actually believes and fight for you the way this one does. Larry is detailed. He gets you what you want and gets your ready for it. I Highly recommend. It's been a good ride. Larry has mentored me though this process and I will continue to lean on his mentorship long after. Thank you for all your patience, hard work and for your persistence. My family thanks you especially.read more

So the time came that I decided to "test" the job market and see what was out there and blindly submitted some applications to test the waters. Not only did they end up being dead end unresponsive... submissions, but also a reality that I was not prepared for an interview even if I had landed one. Mitch #TheHospitalityMatchMaker at EHS found me and helped smooth out the rough edges. He coached me up, helped me with my resume and interviewing skills, AND had me set up with 2 interviews with premier restaurant brands within 1 week. Had the pleasure of working with Scott as well who helped me with some negotiating advice and closing out the terms of my offer. A month later now here I am and could not be happier with the opportunity that was presented to me as I embark on my new journey down my career path and its all in part to Mitch, Scott, & EHS! Highly recommended and if the time comes again when I am at a cross roads I know who I will be contacting first! CANT THANK YOU GUYS ENOUGH FOR THE HARD WORK, EFFORT, AND BELIEF YOU PLACED IN ME AND THE CONTINUATION OF CHECKING ON MY PROGRESS!read more

Larry Seedorf from EHS Hospitality was an essential part of my new career. The process was not rushed. Larry took a great deal of time to get to know my personal life and my professional experience.... He worked closely with me to fine tune my new resume. He represented me to the clients and he did it with all of the information he obtained from me through dozens of conversations. EHS Hospitality is in the business of not just finding the right people for their clients, but also finding the right careers for their candidates. If you are in the hospitality industry and are looking for a new career I highly recommend EHS Hospitality, ask for Larry. Thank you Larry and the rest of EHS.read more

I have been running restaurants in New York for over 14 years. My family had migrated to Florida and I figured it was time to take the plunge as well. With how aggressively and annoying I am with... being organized as well as structured I started applying for jobs while in NY. I was not moving without a job to uncharted territory. Jerry had found my resume and started working with me immediately. I had a job recruiter with a different company who couldn’t handle me and after two weeks gave up on helping me. Jerry stuck with me during the entire process. He then reached out to other colleges such as Dan and Scott so that everyone could get on the same page as to getting me interviews and my foot in the door. If you are ever skeptical or Leary about working with a job recruiter please read these reviews from this company. It is 110 percent legit, these people are here to help you, these people know the industry game in the greater Florida area. A million times thank you to Jerry and the crew down at EHS I truly don’t know what I would of done without your help!!!!read more
