While building a Power Apps application for internal company use, Prassanta greatly assisted several times providing his Microsoft experience not only helping me solve the problems that I encountered on the way, but also suggesting significant improvements I was not considering and ended up being truly helpful. He's definitely a supportive coworker!

Pras worked with us for approx. 1 year building a document management solution in SharePoint. He is very likable and fit in to the team great. He was always happy to assist the whole team with queries and solutions on anything asked of him. I would recommend Pras to any employer....and we are hoping to get him back!

From Rydon

17 September 2020

Pras worked for me on a SharePoint implementation project for around a year. He is knowledgeable about his subject matter, not only SharePoint, but SQL Server and C# too (among other things). Personable, approachable and dependable are all qualities I would attribute to Pras. If I asked him to do something for me, I absolutely knew it would be done in the timeframe we had agreed. If Pras didn't know the answer immediately, it would not be long before he came up with it. I would have no hesitation in recommending Pras to any prospective employer. If I had the opportunity to recruit him again, I would not hesitate.

Pras is a great person to know; he has an engaging personality and a fantastic sense of humour. I’m very fortunate to have met and worked with Pras and couldn’t recommend him highly enough.

We were very lucky to have the expertise of Prasanta to develop workflow and automation across HR processes. I specifically worked with Prasanta on recruitment authorisation and subsequent recruitment administration workflow built in SharePoint. Prasanta's quickly got to grips with current processes and understood what we wanted to achieve, maximising the capabilities of the platform to match our requirements, often offering alternative ideas and solutions that we may not have otherwise thought of. Prasanta didn't just come in and do what he was asked, he took a real interest in helping us to get where we needed to be, he worked quickly and extremely knowledgably and engaged with the wider workforce - being a genuinely nice person to work with.

It is his friendliness, his positive attitude and his keenness to help that makes him popular amongst his colleagues. He is rarely without a smile or without something cricket related to talk about.

From REGIMBEAU

Pras made his hiring process into Pro simple. An honest and genuine guy, who perhaps undersold his technical capabilities, he won everyone over with his knowledge, obvious competencies and his friendly but professional manner immediately on joining. Even the fact that he relocated for the role made no difference, he took it all in his stride. This calm reassurance is in his nature and it translated into the work environment, with many in the firm turning to Pras with their technical issues and challenges often in pressured situations. I was commended many times on what a good hire for the firm he was.

From Pro Insurance Solutions Ltd

23 October 2014

Prasanta & I worked together on a very high pressure system development, meeting changing and emerging business requirements whilst supporting a demanding user-base.
