I have been mentoring students from varied backgrounds for last 10+ years, and I have been very passionate about it. I have started mentoring college graduates after gaining 5 years of corporate experience to give them real life insights and how to bridge between academic excellence and evolving technology landscape. I am also involved with a mentoring organization, Katalyst, aimed to mentor girl students from poor financial background to ensure their inclusiveness in tech industry. Having gained good experience in multiple functions (Tech, Operations, Marketing) across different industry domains, I believe I easily connect with my mentees to help them build confidence, get clarity on future goals and accelerate their career progression.

He talked about reality. And simply said where I would lose my plot in my previous roles. The things I need to learn. Hope in a few months I can able to learn about Product management, and I will give everything. If my mentor said I did a good job at the end of a few months then I will get confidence that I can be a product manager. Getting good appreciation from a mentor is equal to getting a job.

I loved the way Antesh, tried to analyse my blocker in the path of job search and was able to highlight where I need to focus by asking simple questions. He created a road map about my job search in his very call. I felt so confident about his style of mentorship. Looking forward to start working on my PM skills with the help of Antesh.

First of all Antesh Sir’s flexibility in terms of scheduling session on Sunday on request. Secondly, his profile and experience is what I am looking for in a mentor. I aspire to work with a MAANG company and I think Antesh Sir can guide me well.
