Check our what a few of our 2015 student participants had to say about mentoring...
Juliet Bachelor of Environmental Policy and Management & Bachelor of Science (Chemistry) | "My mentor was so incredibly enthusiastic and inspiring that I left each meeting excited for the field of work I was going into. I highly recommend this mentoring program." |
Zviko Master of International Business | "I started the program as a new international student with no work experience and with little knowledge regarding career readiness. Jason helped me decide on a career path and formulate a career-readiness strategy which would make me more employable after graduation." |
Jack Bachelor of Laws & Bachelor of International Studies | "I was pleased to have a mentor who was very successful yet still in the early stages of her own career, which meant that she knew the exact position that I am in now very well." |
Brittany Bachelor of Science (Biomedical) | “Anne helped me think in new ways about my career path and about the many opportunities I already have that I should be taking up." |
