Empowering Student Careers
Our Four-Star Program pairs students with mentors for six weeks to explore career choices. We activate student agency and ownership of their career journey.
By helping one student at a time, we address the underemployment problem facing new college graduates.
Our Volunteer Mission
Our approach centers on empowerment—teaching students to take ownership of their career journeys and make informed decisions. We emphasize the value of resources, guiding students to career centers with tools that transform aspirations into achievements.
At the Sujeeth Foundation, our volunteers spark imagination and open doors to possibility.
We inspire students to dream beyond boundaries and see themselves as architects of their own futures.
Through mentorship and guidance, we encourage fresh perspectives and diverse opportunities.

What Students are Saying
While our meetings at 1 p.m. on Mondays made my schedule a bit busier, they always left me feeling empowered because each lesson was meaningful. The skills and insights I gained prepared me for my professional life and gave me valuable tips for succeeding in interviews.
My mentor shared valuable advice that is relevant for preparing my group and I for a future career, life after college, and how to navigate this last year of undergrad. The steps that my mentor took during our meetings includes relating each week's topic to real world topics and previous meetings, connecting with each other on LinkedIn, and so on. These meetings resulted in a new professional connection and advice that I will remember throughout life.
One positive realization I came to at the end of our meeting is that if you never try, you will never know. It is better to try something new in a career or in life than regret it later on. This experience has been so rewarding and I gained many new friends as well as a wonderful mentor through this experience.
I felt overwhelmed by the process and unsure of the best strategies to stand out to employers. I needed guidance . . . My mentor shared resources, examples, and tips that were practical and easy to apply. Thanks to his support, I gained a lot more confidence in my job search. I now have a clear strategy!
My mentor helped me learn the importance of networking and interview processes. He also gave me feedback on my personal brand. I gained more confidence in my abilities and in navigating the job market.
When I first started exploring marketing and advertising, I felt overwhelmed by the vast range of opportunities and unsure how to position myself effectively. I needed guidance . . . His recommendations, along with connections to industry professionals and practical resources, made the process much more manageable. As a result, I gained clarity, secured interviews for roles aligned with my interests, and approached job searching with a newfound sense of confidence and direction.
My mentor told me to reach out to people in the companies that I’m interested in and to connect with them on LinkedIn. I immediately tried it with one company, HubSpot, and conveniently got an interview with them! The first one already happened and now I am onto the second round! I truly thank you!
