Level One recently hosted the launch of Devonport’s first business-youth mentoring scheme, instigated by local businesswoman Anna Yallop. The 17-week programme matches five final-year university students with local businesspeople and entrepreneurs, providing advice and guidance on topics including networking, professionalism, job interview skills and what employers are looking for. Three of the students — Hamish Buckley, Brittany Mark and Mona Harnett — have known each other since Vauxhall Primary School days, while the other two — Nina Wieland and Andre Botha — are both relative newcomers to Devonport. They’re all hoping to get advice on how to make themselves as employable as possible, and to pick their mentors’ brains on career choices.
