MENTOR ACADEMY
Make it stand out.
The Investate Apprenticeship Academy is a practical, high-impact mentoring programme created to help ambitious students secure competitive degree apprenticeships. Launching after our flagship summer event, the Academy will provide personalised, hands-on support to a select group of students identified for their potential and drive.
Each mentor, a current apprentice at a leading firm, will guide their handpicked cohort through the full application journey. This includes CV and cover letter reviews, support with online assessments, mock interviews, and exclusive insight into what top firms are really looking for. Mentors will also deliver targeted advice based on their own successful experiences at companies such as J.P. Morgan, White & Case, Deloitte, and Ashurst.
The Academy is built for outcomes: real offers, real development, and real relationships. Students will gain not just a guide but an advocate, someone who understands the pressure and path ahead.
