Saddam did not fail me a single time. Saddam is a highly organized, goal oriented, independent and hard working perfectionist always ready to put all his energy and stamina to get the job done. Well educated and energetic. He is able to work in a fast-paced environment. Saddam is probably one of the best strategists I have ever met in my life and one of the smartest professionals I have ever worked with. This guy is a great value in your team. Wish him a good luck.
