In his time with us, he quickly advanced into a leadership role due to his aggressive student mentality, outstanding work ethic and great character.

Any company would benefit from having him on their team. I would recommend Filip Westlander without any hesitation.
Ryan GENENA
I would characterize Filip as highly motivated, proactive, and intelligent. I have known him as a student for a few years now and would be lucky to pursue a professional endeavor with him in the years to come. I commend him for his accomplishments as a student studying in a foreign country, considering how active he is on campus. Filip is an overall exceptional person with a great personality, natural leadership, and dedicated work ethic.
