Frequently Asked Questions About Mentoring
How will users contact me?
You can let us know your preferred mode of contact.
People who are seeking career advice can reach you by a confidential
bulletin board exchange on this site, or by e-mailing you directly.
How often will I be contacted?
There's no set answer to this question. However, if you
work in a popular occupation or you live in a popular geographic
location, there is a chance you may receive more contacts. If at any
time you are concerned with the amount of contact you are receiving (too
much, too little, etc.) please let us know right away, and we'll take
steps to address the issue.
What if someone asks me for a job? I am not in a
position to offer employment.
MentorMatch is designed as a networking and
mentoring tool to provide information about experiences and resources,
not as a recruiting site.
If someone does ask you for a job, however, you may want
to consider it a moment for true mentorship. You might communicate your
desire to assist in the individual's career exploration, emphasizing
that the best support you can offer is in providing advice about the
individual's career search. Also, you might want to give some networking
tips, and questions he/she might want to ask of other mentors as well.
