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. Through SFAN events, I’ve been able to polish my mentorship skills as well as expand my pool of mentees and my network of fellow entrepreneurs.

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.
