Raymond and I met at SAE Baja event 3 years ago and I have known him since then. We have collaborated and shared a lot of ideas. In my view, Raymond has a good thought process to solve problems and has an innovative mind. He is extremely hardworking and dedicated. He has immense potential and supreme intelligence. I would highly recommend Raymond for any position as I have complete faith in him.

      All started with an informative talk by technicians on Mahindra SUVs. Everything that is required to know on services need by the SUVs were explained to me. I also learned a lot of methods and tricks that a customer can use to keep his engine safe. Getting to know all about XUV500 was very exciting cause it is one of my favorites.

      My journey in Automotive industry started with this internship while studying Mechanical Engineering. This internship gave me a perfect picture of how it is like to work in an industry than what we actually hear about. Learning about the Maruti sedan and hatchbacks was a good idea to start with, they being simple and basic to understand. It was this internship that made me realize how important practical knowledge is when we compare it with theoretical.
