Resume Feedback with Ian

My goal of the mentorship was to get a head start in the transition from Data Analytics to Data Science. From Ian, I got that and more! Ian helped me create a customized curriculum with books and online courses based on my current knowledge, and also assisted me in defining and starting my Machine Learning project, which I had been struggling with. Finally, after multiple months of mentoring, I decided to apply for an online Data Science Master's program at one of the prestigious US universities, where I got accepted thanks to Ian's guidance and support. I cannot recommend Ian enough!

This was my first experience working with a mentor and Ian was amazing. He made me feel welcomed and at ease. I felt comfortable freely discussing all the challenges I was facing in my career. Ian was a great sounding board, offering words of encouragement and making sure I was on the right track - it really helped to boost my confidence.

Have really enjoyed working with Ian. At the start of the mentorship, Ian drew up a plan of how to get me to my expected goal. He has been available for questions, reviewing progress, checking in when needed - all things you’d want from a mentor. He’s very patient and understanding and very knowledgeable in this field.

I felt fortunate to have found Ian. He listened diligently to what my situation was and then also what I was pursuing. He showed effort in preparing a customized document summarizng what my strategic action items should be and also how the current environment would affect me.

Ian is a gem of a mentor, he is very positive and supportive yet very honest with his feedback which is essential to improve and move forward. I'm trying to break into a new sector of data analytics and Ian has really gone the extra mile to ensure I stay motivated and focused on the right things to maximise my chances of getting a data analyst job. I'm really grateful to have found him and to have him working with me. Highly recommended!
