Testimonial

“As a young Quantity Surveyor enthusiast, I was in pursuit of new, exciting projects to be a part of. I was in a constant search to find a project that utilises the latest and advanced construction methods, until I came across Maxim Recruitment. Bhumika, found the perfect project for me where I fit in like a glove. She played a pivotal role in my transition from South Africa to Barbados, in the Caribbean Islands. Despite the time difference among all parties involved, Bhumika showed effective communication and was literally a call away to resolve any uncertainties. With that said, I highly recommend Maxim Recruitment to other vibrant Quantity Surveyors. ”
