PR Account ManagerManager

As Senior Account Executive at TRACCS, before I left the agency in 2012, I frequently supervised Aqib during his internship period. Aqib was exceedingly pleasant to work with, very focused in his assignments, and kept a regular follow up of the open tasks. He has a quick understanding of the PR and Advertising business processes and has the ability to learn, evaluate and grasp activities associated with the field. I am confident Aqib will make a very successful candidate as a starter and wish him all the success in his future endeavors!
