It was a great pleasure to be managed by Jamil on the financial staff of Neoris. Through his coaching, we achived a high level of quality on financial internal services, as well as introduced a whole new concept of business report and information consolidation. As a result, the company experienced a boost on its operation, bringing a new dynamic to the business and providing career development to all of us.
