March – Application & Growth: Mentees actively apply for roles while seeking targeted guidance from their mentor on opportunities, pay discussions, showcasing work, and clearly communicating experience.

April – Life After Base Camp: You’ll help mentees prepare for life after Base Camp, including continued learning, professional growth, and personal finance basics. Setting them up for long-term success
