AshokJan 17, 2025 - Interview coaching
Sajjad was just awesome to work with. We hit it right off the bat. He was super clued into where I was in my career journey and truly helped me find my path.
The session with Sajjad, saved me weeks of work chasing an opportunity that would have been a career distraction.
