The first call | received from Sapphire Human Solutions sounded very professional and | decided to continue my interaction with them. Later theirmodalities of interaction were very convincing by the seriousness shown to my discussion. They did iron out all the queries raised by me in a verydetailed and professional manner, also they were a part of most of the meetings if they needed to sort it out with the employer, they were verytransparent in their interaction as they understand that it mattered to me as it’s a big decision. Even during my busy schedule and me not picking upcalls they demonstrated their patience and anchored themselves and got me to speak during non office hours. I wish Sapphire Human Solutions all thebest and keep up the good work.

Also your insight and understanding on the prospect's thoughtprocesses, desirables from the hirer and fitment at all stages is commendable. We all can claim professionalism and processes that we follow at theend of the day, but softer aspects of making minds and thought processes meet is probably under-rated and that's where you have some strengths.
