Testimonials

Alessandra Giacometti

Shell, Netherlands

Tamkara is a very energetic, professional and innovative person. I have known Tamkara from her work at Shell Outpost The Hague for her excellent Career and Development support to Shell Globally Mobile employees and partners. She is very proficient in one-to-one career consultations, as well as very knowledgeable about job market trends and specific insights in the NL. 
I attended job search workshops and cultural awareness workshops that she designed and facilitated and was amazed by her communication skills. I cannot forget her extraordinary “The 2-Hour Job Search” seminar! 
Tamkara’s interest in community building resulted in the establishment of the Outpost The Hague Careers community group, having in mind a safe networking platform for Shell partners to develop themself. I wish to continue to collaborate with Tamkara in more projects to come.

"I've had the pleasure of working with Tamkara during my relocation from Ghana and working in the USA in 2018-2019. She offered a great deal of help with respect to Human Resource and Global Mobility during my time at Kinross.
She is very dedicated to her Job, Resourceful and Altruistic. She will go beyond and above outside her normal job duties to offer extra help to me and my family to enable us have a good stay whiles in the USA.
I would consider her an asset to any team."
