MADISON HACKETT, FOOD SCIENCE & NUTRITION STUDENT @ UNIVERSITY OF LEEDS
MENTORED BY JO ELSDON, HEAD OF FOOD AND DRINK, GREGGS

“Time with my mentor has given me industry insight that complements my university learnings. Mentoring has really helped me to understand how to apply my academic knowledge in industrial settings. The chance to freely discuss potential career options as well as different paths within the industry has been invaluable. Interview and job application guidance has improved my confidence and enabled me to aim higher and achieve my potential. My mentor hasn't just helped me develop my employability skills, but also taken away my concerns of entering the graduate market. One of the best opportunities I have ever undertaken and I am sure that every student would find mentoring incredibly beneficial.”
