"My mentor guided me through my job options, helped me clarify my objectives, and create an impressive resume. His knowledge and continuous support gave me more self-assurance and equipped me to meet obstacles head-on in the future. With a limited network in Canada, it is challenging to provide a reference from Canada when job searching. My mentor is able to be a reference for me and help me build connections".
