My mentor was like a guide to me. Better than any of the mentors I've had before. They hadn't studied engineering and didn't know much about it.

The best part was learning about the opportunities and jobs that are available. Together with my mentor, we reached out to various workplaces and visited the company to learn more.

When you're unemployed, you spend a lot of time alone and don't always feel like you're part of society. When you're in the program, you have something to do and something to look forward to. It makes you feel good.
