<aside> 👤 Mentorship Day is April 27, 2023!

</aside>

About:

Mentorship was the most requested addition to Hire Women Week programming in 2022. With your help, we are piloting a mentorship matchmaking day to connect mentees to senior professionals in their field.

Time Commitment: 30 min per session Each sign up leads to a 20-minute session with option to extend time by a few minutes if needed.

Where: Join the video session via the Hire Women Week event platform.

Who are the Mentees: The mentees are women who are attending Hire Women Week. Last year, almost half our audience identified as “up & comping” and 35% identified as “Mid-Career.” We also expect a large part of our attendees this year to be women+ who have been affected by layoffs and are wanting to expand their network. We expect women of all ages.

Topics to discuss: Mentees should be prepared to bring one or two specific questions. If they do not have specific questions, we suggest you share your personal career story and any resources that helped you develop the skills you have now.

There is no obligation to stay in touch with your mentee after Hire Women Week, but we certainly hope you want to! Please exchange information on the call if you want to stay in touch.
