Sasken Alumni

We believe that every Sasian contributes significantly to our achievements, big and small. It will be an absolute joy for us to have our ex-Sasians come back to work with us. All one has got to do is write to us, letting us know he or she wants to come back for another marvelous journey at careers@sasken.com or tell a current Sasian to refer the name. The rest is taken care of.
