We are not carried away by distracters like gaps, no salary slips, more volunteer work than real work, nor do
we see your fat salary offered by MNC or convinced by your origins, being referred, or being next door friend.
What we need is the right basic parameters that allow you to work globally without much hindrance. We
balance the lost opportunities with the future opportunities in arriving with a go or no go decision. Not many
meet us requirement, it is alright, as there are as many clients as there are competitors’ and no shortage of
skilled / semi and no-skilled workers
Thanks again for your time and showing interest in our startup. We can surely engage if you meet our basic
minimum standards
Your’s truly,
