I have worked with Urjit at Unigen for almost a year. I found him to be highly motivated, responsible, and proficient as a buyer in the Purchasing Department. He understood the purchasing responsibilities and systems very well, and he could explain them in clear, concise language so that even a component engineer like myself could understand. His communication skills are excellent. He's a team player, skilled as a buyer, and he definitely goes the extra mile to get the job done well.

I highly recommend Urjit Amin as a candidate for employment. I hired Urjit at California State University, Northridge in October 2015, where he served as our Computer Lab Technician from October 2015 until he graduated in May 2017. His role was to manage the day to day operations of the lab which included, assisting students with any tech needs, making sure the lab was fully functional, and providing exceptional customer service all the while. Urjit exceeded all of our expectations in every way. He always made time to be courteous to every person with whom he made contact. His customer service was exceptional, with his kind, knowledgeable, and professional approach with students, faculty, and staff. Of particular value to me as his manager was his technical knowledge base. He was able to troubleshoot many issues in the lab and knew when to escalate them to IT. He was very engaged in his job and and it showed in his ability to work independently with little to no supervision. Urjit was very reliable and conscientious of his timekeeping. He would be a tremendous asset for your company and has my highest recommendation. If you have any further questions with regard to his background or qualifications please do not hesitate to contact me.
