Treiing, Mentorship Program 2024
Hemofarm Foundation initiated the Mentorship Program in 2017, as an additional support to personal and professional development of scholarship holders, future experts in the field of healthcare and pharmaceutical industry. The Program, among other, involves development of soft skills, acquiring knowledge and practical experience necessary for personal and professional progress, creating positive environment for employment of young people and motivating them to apply their knowledge in Serbia.
“I was a mentor last year as well, because I really like the Program and working with young people. I find it important to share my knowledge with them and motivate them to work in the industry. However, I also find it important to learn about their perspectives and attitudes, which are not restrained by conventions of a working environment“, said one of the mentors, Bojana Podgorac, Business Development Project Senior Manager of Hemofarm Group.
