“For the past two and a half years, Amir and I worked together on deploying media campaigns to support Netflix's employer brand efforts on LinkedIn. Amir was my main point of contact at Netflix. From day one, his eagerness to learn the ins and outs of the LinkedIn talent media solutions stood out, and he excelled in them in no time.

I appreciate Amir as a client and person, and will miss our partnership in the future. ”
