Graphic for the podcast episode featuring Sheila Sarem and Todd Zipper discussing first-generation student barriers and career navigation

Basta Founder and CEO Sheila Sarem recently joined Todd Zipper for a conversation about what happens after college graduation and why so many first-generation students still face barriers to launching strong careers. In the episode, Sheila shares more about the “last mile” between college completion and career launch, the challenges behind underemployment, and how Basta is working to close that gap through more intentional, data-driven career navigation.

Basta’s Mission is to close the employment gap for first-generation students and change the face of leadership in the workforce.
