    Chaperone plays a vital role in today’s future. I witnessed firsthand how they played an instrumental role in widening the horizon of our Ph.D. students. Through a very well-structured entrepreneurial bootcamp, Chaperone consultants managed to deliver actionable knowledge that I have no doubt will help our researchers streamline more sustainable careers.

    Kira Gama Rocha, Assistant Professor, University of Porto

    The session with Chaperone was amazing! I’ve got a lot of insights and I feel like I know more about myself and what I want to do in life! Absolutely mind blown! Thank you so much!

    Niklas Hoffmamn, LIUC Università Carlo Cattaneo

    I had two sessions with Chaperone, one to prepare a competitive CV able to make me stand out, and another to prepare for an interview. Both sessions went really well, with the advice being clear and very useful, with an emphasis on the small things which ultimately made a big difference.

    André Carvalho, MSc, University of Porto

    My session was very challenging and clarifying. The consultant was a very intelligent and open minded specialist and defied me to push my limits while understanding my reality, and helped me to organize my thoughts regarding my doubts, empowering me to make a clear and fundamented decision. I highly recommend Chaperone.

    Rita Fonseca, MD, Family Medicine Residency Program, Portugal

    With Chaperone, it has been possible to tailor and deliver career support programs that match the needs of the students and researchers at Karolinska Institute. We appreciate Chaperones’ well-structured operations management, a wide range of career-development-related topics and activities, and the great career consultants. We look forward to continuing this fruitful collaboration!

    Raquel Tavares & Vladimir Pabón-Martínez, Coordinators at Karolinska Institutet Career Service

    The increase in complexity surrounding the science job market emphasizes the need for career counselling and coaching, in both the private and academic settings. All science professionals should take advantage of platforms that help them identify or develop the skills they need to navigate this job market.
