Monis Rahman, CEO of Rozee.pk said, “as Pakistan’s most powerful talent matching platform, Rozee has access to data spanning millions of records. We strongly believe in the importance of higher education in helping secure better employment opportunities and are happy to help a national institution like HEC on a project of such national significance.”
