Meet former Tech Colledge mentors & mentees!
Julius, Mentor Hamburg @tech colledge
"For me tech colledge was an opportunity to pass my experience down to young professionals who are just starting out on their career. It's about showing and explaining the ins and outs of being a professional in the field of tech without learning things the hard way. I want to be the person to my mentees I wish I had at the beginning of my career."
Mario, Mentor Berlin @tech colledge
"As a tech colledge Mentor I enjoyed the opportunity to help someone discover their own strengths and reflect on what are their biggest challenges. It was an nice opportunity to support someone to navigate their own adventure of knowing who they are and where do they see themselves in the future as a professional. It was a nice experience, full of personal growth for everyone."
Yeti, Mentor Munich @tech colledge
"Through tech colledge I was given the opportunity to join a journey of knowledge sharing, possibilities exploration and self development together with my mentee. It is very powerful to try and help your mentee achieve their targets and discover their own unique way of taking decisions along the way."
Christopher, Mentee @tech colledge (Ham)
"I`m a soon to be Netlighter in Hamburg and will focus on Backend Development. The tech colledge program really helped me a lot of what it means to work as a Consultant. Especially having a mentor on my side was a big support when it came to any challenges in & outside the program."
Lina, Mentee @tech colledge (Ham)
"While writing my Master's thesis and navigating job offers, joining Netlight's tech colledge was a great experience. The six-month programme, with monthly sessions, covered consulting fundamentals and gave me a deep insight into Netlight's supportive culture.
My mentor, Lasse, provided invaluable guidance and confidence without pressuring me to join. Solving technical challenges alongside a delivery consultant highlighted Netlight's expertise. This experience clarified my career path and made my transition after graduation smooth.
Overall, tech colledge left me with a deep appreciation for Netlight's commitment to personal and professional growth."
Torben, Mentee @tech colledge (Ham)
"The tech colledge gave me the unique opportunity to try out what it's like to work in a consultancy. It helped me understand what it means to be a Netlighter and showed me what working at Netlight could look like. Through really valuable and fun events, workshops and challenges, as well as regular sessions with a dedicated mentor, I was able to ask any questions I had and received great advice for my professional future. All in all, I highly recommend this program."
