At the Speed Mentorship Event you can select the people you want to meet and spend 5 to 10 minutes with them before moving to another person. You can ask questions about the sector they work in, what role they play, the types of careers available, internship or volunteer opportunities and any additional qualifications or training required for work in the sector.
