Testimonials

I have always found Airswift to be very responsive, helpful and knowledgeable. We have used Airswift specifically to facilitate contractor needs in countries where we have not had an entity or where we have had a need for specific contractor assistance that Airswift can provide.
I can see clearly a very positive evolution in 2 years on the services and the reactivity of Airswift. Even if mistakes happen, my contact is still reactive to find solutions! I am very happy to deal with this agency
Airswift is an asset of the company. If the contract at one company is completed, Airswift can find another company to be a new place of work according to their field so that the employee is looking for himself and not long unemployed
