TESTIMONIALS

I have known Abhash from our undergraduate in IOE, Pulchowk Campus. He is a cheerful guy with outstanding knowledge of civil engineering. We worked together during 1st National Civil-Mechanical Engineering Exhibition in 2015, where he showed his ability to organize, manage and complete the job. He is really good with software programs related to civil engineering e.g. AutoCAD, SAP. He will be a valuable addition to the company he works for.

I’ve known Abhash since early 2013 when we joined university for our bachelor’s degree. Very quickly I noticed that Abhash was extremely diligent, hard working and a quick learner who can master new skills easily. I had been in contact with Abhash even after our university days,and I’m happy to hear that he is progressing very quickly. His extraordinary people skills, subject matter expertise and the ability to apply knowledge into action gives him a distinct edge over fellow professionals of the engineering domain. With all these in mind, I have no hesitation whatsoever to recommend Abhash to any position he applies for.

Abhash is most joyous personality I have ever known. He constantly gives his best in everything he gets his feets wet. He is hardworking, motivated, and a great leader. He strives to make positive impact on people's lives and put excellence in his work. I believe, he is destined to reach great heights.
