Beyond BGS is our online mentoring programme where current BGS sixth formers, recent leavers and alumni with years of experience can connect to share advice, ask questions, and offer support. Some of the most experienced practitioners in law, finance, medicine, the arts, publishing, engineering, computing and sport science to name a few, are available online to answer questions.
From help with your CV, interview advice or deciding between Universities, there'll be someone here to help. We invite both those considering what to do after school and indeed those looking to further or change their careers to use this service, which is supported entirely by volunteer OBs. We would also welcome more OBs to join in as mentors- promoting their areas of knowledge with contact details for people to get in touch.
