Frequently Asked Questions

Mentorship

How do I sign up?

Easy, just follow this button and start journey!

Start Your Journey
What are the requirements to join as a student?

Just be you! There are no specific requirements but we do recommend this mentorship for graduate students, because it adds most value when you transition from student to young professional.

How will I be matched to a mentor?

Once you’ve finalized your profile you will immediately get matched to available mentors, so be prepared! They match your ambitions and career path.  We recommend reviewing your matches as soon as they’re ready for you. You get to select potential mentors and after your initial selection, the mentor(s) has to respond back to you.

What kind of career paths do your mentors have?

Currently we focus on IT and Tech students and career path.

How much time do I need to invest?

As much as you like, the more you put into it the more you'll get out of it. We recommend having 6 meetings over a course of 2 months. The length and form is all up to you!

What kind of career opportunities do you offer?

Having a mentor could open up some very interesting doors for you! So focus on the mentorship and growing potential instead of just one outcome.

Can I become a mentor as a student?

Oh! Interesting question, in our perfect world everybody could be a mentor or a mentee at the same time. Kind of like Schrodingers Cat but different, and not with cats, anyway lets stick to the point: not yet. In this stage we only match students to professionals.

Is Hello Mentor free?

Yes! It’s free to join Hello Mentor as a mentee or mentor. No hidden fees, secret subscriptions or other shenanigans. Free, because opportunities and connections should be available to everybody.

Matchmaking

How does the AI matchmaking work?

After you’ve created and finalized your profile our AI matchmaker will work its magic to find you potential mentors.  We recommend reviewing your matches as soon as they’re ready for you. You get to select potential mentors and after your initial selection, the mentor(s) has to respond back to you.

Start Your Journey
Help, I was unable to respond on time. What should I do?

Don’t worry we’re getting you right back into the matchmaking to find a new one for you!

What happens when I accept a match?

 If you and your match both accept you get to chat with each other! Use this moment to set up an introduction meeting and share a bit about yourself. After the introduction meeting there is a go/no go moment. Go! Congratulations you start your mentorship woohoo! No go? Back to matchmaking!
