Careers e-Award 2019/2020: Career Mentoring

Congratulations to all Career Mentoring participants for the completion of the program!

Introduced in 2014 as an Alumni Mentoring program, the program was revamped in 2018 as the Employer Lead e-Mentoring module, a new initiative under the Nottingham Advantage Award which saw the participation of 4 companies. In 2019, the program has been continued with its new title Career Mentoring which CAS brought in more than 20 employers and alumni mentors to share their experience, knowledge and guidance towards the mentees.

Each mentee will be assigned with one mentor who will communicate with you through online communication such as email, phone call or WhatsApp. For this batch, the mentoring duration was 2 months (2 March – 30 April). The mentoring is suggested to take place once a week. The mentors offered bespoke advice about job applications, graduate recruitment processes and provide a glimpse into the realities of their profession to the mentees.

Please refer below for the list of students who had completed the Careers Mentoring program.
