Being surrounded by peers who are passionate about finance is, in my view, the best way to break into the field. Every conversation with the guys makes you feeling more motivated. It’s a community of truly bright minds.

Ivan has been an incredible mentor. Right from the start, he was able to identify my most critical areas with great clarity and, with a lot of patience, he is helping me work on them in a concrete way. His support isn't limited to technical aspects, it goes much further. Motivation, mindset, and soft skills are an integral part of the journey. You can clearly feel how much he personally cares about the mentee's growth. Working with him is truly a pleasure.

I’ve connected with a tight-knit community of people who share the same drive, where we help and learn from each other. The experience with the mentorship program has also been highly positive. I’ve met a very sharp mentor with whom I can have stimulating conversations and ask for advice in a direct and open way.

In my view, the fellowship is a great opportunity to meet people who can shape your path and help you navigate the complexity of entering your target job market.
