What to Expect - Before Contacting Your Mentor

  • Research your mentor’s career field, company and geographic location.
  • Make a list of your own short- and long-term goals.
  • Think about what you’d like to gain from your mentorship experience. Develop a list of these items.
  • Review your calendar and commitments and be prepared with several possible options for meeting times. Remember that your mentor is in a different time zone, so consider this as you review your availability. You may need to be willing to get up early or stay up later to meet with your mentor.
