Mentorship

Zentein Nutrition is experienced in providing mentorship to students as we have worked with Western University's Pre-Business Student Network and the Western Marketing Association for the past three years to provide education and real-life work experiences to university students from first year to PhD. We will provide the student one on one calls with the founder of the company for onboarding and checkups as often as needed (a Calendly link will be provided where students can book Zoom meetings). The students will also have the opportunity to talk to other members of the team as applicable to their job, and join team meetings with other team members.

If you are in London or the surrounding area, you can also visit our commercial kitchen and help with the production process/learn!
