I worked with Nikhil in McAfee for more than a year where I was reporting to him. He is a person with great passion about technologies. He loves to dive deep into problems and spent time with team members to solve multiple critical issues. Even though he was not familiar with Java, he helped us in going deeper into product functionality, identify root cause and come up with optimal solution of the problems we faced. Nikhil is down to earth and very humble. During my time with him never felt like working with a Director. He is great coach and always a person with vision for the team. He coached us on breaking down challenges into smaller set of problems and solves them efficiently. He takes care of his team, encourages people to create effective work life harmony which helped me in having a good work life balance. It was a pleasure working with Nikhil.

Working with Nikhil in his role as a Hiring Manager has been a wonderful experience. I worked with Nikhil very closely in hiring for Technologies like Big Data, QA & Salesforce. He is an amazing hiring manager to work with. He takes a lot of interest in the day to day recruiting activities and owns his end of the cycle smoothly and understands the functioning of Talent Market. Another specific thing to point out is the structuring of the interviews based on the specific objectives he wants to achieve out of the interview which makes the interviews less subjective and Talent oriented. He also has worked very closely with TA by extending his full support towards building a rapport with candidates and helping with easy and smooth onboarding of the candidates. I am glad to have him as a hiring manager at Apttus (Now Conga)
