Alumnae Testimonials

״I first got to know Nishmat five years ago, and since then my path has been closely connected to this amazing program. My mentor is Blaynesh Zabadia, who works in the Foreign Ministry. Before my first meeting with Blaynesh, I was quite apprehensive about the field of diplomacy and the Foreign Ministry, as I didn’t feel knowledgeable enough to pursue it. My lack of information about the field concerned me and caused a lack of confidence in my ability to achieve my career goals. During those meetings, Blaynesh helped me get organized and understand exactly what was needed — and what wasn’t — to be accepted for positions related to the Foreign Ministry. Thanks to the program, a lasting connection was formed between my mentor and me, which continues even after the program ends. This is a gift every woman would want to advance her career.״

״The program helped me understand what I truly want to pursue, to look inward, and ask myself whether I feel fulfilled in the career I’m in. It helped me uncover my abilities and, most importantly, gave me tools to balance career and motherhood.״

Hagit Nega

״Throughout this journey, I discovered new horizons within myself and became aware of a deep desire to grow and make the most of my knowledge and skills. With the personal guidance and professional training I received, a new vision for my career took shape before my eyes, and I courageously decided to make a change, moving from an elementary school to a middle school. This process was challenging but fascinating. I feel that my mentor’s unwavering support and wisdom became the foundation of my personal and professional growth throughout the program. Together, we navigated challenges, celebrated successes, and explored things in depth״
