A mentor is a qualified individual in a certain industry with experience and knowledge that they are able to pass on to the mentees. A mentor's job is to help the mentee build social capital and find job opportunities.

Once you've signed up, the RISE50 Team will review your profile before we reach out to you with mentees. Once a mentee has expressed interest in working with you, RISE50 will contact you with candidates you may want to mentor. After you've agreed to mentor someone, RISE50 will give you the mentees information so you can send them an email.

This varies on a case by case basis. Sometimes, mentees need skill refinement in certain areas in order to progress in their industry. Other times, mentees need to expand their social circles to connect with individuals in positions that could be beneficial to social mobility. Effective mentorship is very flexible and completely up to the mentor and mentee. With that being said, the end goal should be advancing the mentees position in their respective industry.

Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the best option to meet is virtually. This can be done in numerous ways. RISE50 suggests Zoom, Microsoft Teams, FaceTime, or over the phone.

The monthly hours you indicated when you signed up are a good way to determine how often you meet with your mentee. However, you do not need to stick to the hours you've committed. You can decide to meet for more or less time than you initially committed if there is a mutual agreement with your mentee.
