Varuna was a candidate of Red Hat Certified Systems Administration training program which conducted by myself in our institute. Varuna was more from Windows background and he has tons of numerous experiences in different methodologies related to Windows. Even he was bit new to Linux, I admire his dedication and catchup every single point perfectly. He is a dedicated engineer for the task he assigned and read lot about the technology he interest. He has very good attitude which is must to have as a Engineer and that earn respect from everyone. I have no hesitation on recommending him to any kind of technical position, as I know that he will surely pickup everything in very soon than you think.
