Participating in the HSBC programme was a game-changer for me. It wasn't just about weekly sessions on HSBC's business areas; it was a comprehensive package that included invaluable career coaching. This holistic approach to learning broadened my knowledge and equipped me with the skills and confidence to approach banking and finance.

I gained a realistic insight into the investment banking sector, and have been successful in achieving a summer internship for 2024. I would highly recommend the platform to any students seeking to apply to university, internships or graduate roles.

My Zero Gravity mentor was Deepti, and she not only helped me get into Southampton to do Economics and Actuarial science, but she has also helped me restructure my CV and cover letters to help me apply for internships when I am at Uni in the future.

This company is always looking for more opportunities for the mentors and mentees. The commitment to "bridging the gap" is not just talk they always act on this whether it's by providing accelerator courses or mini seminars on how to write a CV. I have never signed up for something that just keeps giving and giving. It has also allowed me to give back to other students.

My mentor helped tailor my CV to the jobs I wanted to apply to and gave me advice on how to flesh out my CV with volunteering as I had no official experience. He also tasked me with weekly activities about what we discussed in the meetings inspiring me to work on revision to better understand certain topics! Overall, I was happy with my mentor.

The community on zero gravity has been so beneficial in connecting with like-minded students who have similar interests and have a similar background to you.
