Adriana is a sensitive, warm, and funny person. She’s the kind of person who asks questions that open your mind and encourage self-reflection, which aligns perfectly with the kind of person I am.
She’s always trying to be helpful and offer any kind of support. We’ve navigated many challenges together, such as different time zones, languages, and cultural backgrounds, and I feel our connection has only grown stronger over time.

In our sessions, we discuss technical matters as well as topics related to work culture, building confidence in your thoughts and ideas, sharing them with your superiors and team, and preventing burnout.
I’m grateful to have e-met Adriana during this stage of my learning journey.

It was an amazing 45-minute session. I feel much more motivated to transition from a Data Analyst to a Data Scientist.
It was also truly valuable to connect with someone like Busra who understands clearly the unique challenges of an international working in data science in the UK.
She asked critical questions to understand my profile and then suggested very clear next steps on learning materials, job search portals, and CV improvement.
She even offered me some mock interviews in the future. I highly appreciate her great support and dedication!

My conversation with Sonika provided much-needed clarity and helped me pinpoint key areas to focus on as I navigate my next steps. I particularly valued her emphasis on letting go of fear and pressure in order to make clear, values-aligned career decisions; guidance that was both empowering and actionable.
Her advice on exploring alternative career paths was insightful, especially around identifying short-term income opportunities for stability while pursuing long-term goals. She also encouraged engaging with tech communities, leveraging existing skills in new ways, contributing to open-source projects, and asking more intentional questions. I left the session feeling more focused, confident, and motivated to move forward with purpose.
Sonika is a clear and supportive mentor who helped me refocus and gain direction. Her practical, values-based guidance and tailored suggestions like balancing immediate needs with long-term goals and tapping into existing strengths left me feeling confident and motivated to take meaningful next steps.

Samuela was not only thoughtful and caring but also very honest and insightful throughout the session. I was able to learn more about what it's like to work in start up/scale up companies based on her experience and how would I be able to stand out among other candidates by letting me know what and how to highlight my experience on my CV.
Also, it was nice to share some worries as a woman in tech and hear really good advice and suggestions that would make a huge difference to my mindset and mental health. Overall, it was a comfortable yet therapeutic session and I really enjoyed it.

She was able to give advice on how to tackle the tech industry job application as an soon-to-be graduate student.
She was also able to get me connected to an individual working in a particular sector that I was really interested in.
