Hiswan and I worked together for three years plus, and I was lucky to call him my coworker. He consistently gave 100 percent effort to the team and played a significant role in ensuring that we completed tasks on time. He had excellent relationships management skills and had a knack for keeping everyone calm and productive during intense crunch periods. I miss his smile in the office! Any team would be lucky to have Hiswan, and I couldn’t recommend him more for any business looking for new talent.
