Testimonial

“Moving from working as an Engineer on-site to a Delay Analyst role was a big step and Maxim were able to guide me through the process smoothly. Nilam was very attentive, knowledgeable, and professional throughout. She was able to promptly answer any questions I had or was able to pass them on to the relevant people without hesitation. She kept me very well informed from the start and made contact before interviews to ensure I was prepared and after to understand how they went. I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity Maxim presented me and to Nilam for her efforts and genuine enthusiasm for me starting a new phase of my career. ”
