When Stephanie joined Zero Gravity, she was a student with big ambitions and no roadmap. Here's where the platform took her.
- Into uni. Stephanie received personalised mentoring that helped her secure a place at the University of Sheffield to study Biochemistry and Genetics.
- Into work. Through the platform, she was matched with a career mentor from Fidelity, a two-year mentoring relationship that gave her tailored guidance on everything from applications to career direction.
- Into life. Stephanie accessed the HSBC HeadStart Programme, a highly competitive internship offered through Zero Gravity, and landed a place on HSBC's coveted Cyber Security Graduate Scheme.
In Stephanies own words;
“Zero Gravity is always looking for more opportunities for the mentors and mentees. The commitment to ‘bridging the gap’ is not just talk. They always act on this, whether it's by providing accelerator courses or mini seminars on how to write a CV. I have never signed up for something that just keeps giving and giving.”
