I am extremely grateful to Faizan as he gave me the opportunity to join him at Extramarks education India pvt limited. As a fresh college post grad with no experience, he was the first manager I reported to at my previous as well as current organisation. He is a highly skilled orator/presenter, with apt knowledge about business development, marketing and strategic planning. He is also very energetic, cooperative and understanding as a manager. He taught me how to crack sales and build effective relationships with clients.
