What People Said
As a mentor, I work with colleagues from across the globe — some of which I am yet to see in real life. However, it is important not to disregard face to face meet-ups. SFAN offers that platform to come in contact with potential new recruits during seminars.

I participated in SFAN’s Quantum Leap Career Fair which SFAN organized in collaboration with the British Council in April 2017. I must say that this has been one of the greatest opportunities in my life so far because my current position at GFA Consulting Limited came as a result of a recommendation from SFAN.
