Paromita worked as a reporter for Construction Week from May 2015 to January 2017, during my tenure as editor of the magazine and website. Throughout this period, Paromita demonstrated her abilities as a conscientious and diligent individual with in-depth knowledge of the Middle East’s construction and real estate sectors. She also proved to be a tenacious journalist, regularly securing interviews with high-profile industry figures and filing exclusive, off-diary news stories. I have no doubt that Paromita would make an excellent addition to any team. She is a consummate professional and a thoroughly decent person.

Paromita is one of the most hard working and sweetest girl I've met. She is a professional lady that everybody would love to work with.
