About the Mentoring Scheme
The Cypriots in the City Mentoring Scheme is a yearly programme connecting Cypriot students with experienced professionals across a range of industries in the UK. The programme is completely free of charge, with successful applicants matched one-to-one with a mentor based on their interests, career goals and chosen field.
Applications for the next mentoring cycle will open in July 2027.
Why have a mentor?
Having an established mentor in the field you are interested in is highly likely to be beneficial for your career. A mentor can support you in achieving your career goals, guide you through professional decisions and offer unbiased advice on your situation, ultimately allowing you to grow your career in the direction that you want it to go in.
60% of UK business leaders have had a mentor, and of these, 97% said they had benefited from the advice given (Source: DDI, 2005).
