About the Program
Why
This mentoring program aims to connect professional experts with individuals seeking guidance and support during a professional process.
A mentor who was carefully selected based on their experience is a volunteer who donates their time and knowledge.
A mentee has an experienced mentor to accompany them on their professional journey. In exchange, they donate money.
We, in turn, donate the proceeds to our hand picked non-profit organizations.
This way, we can create a win-win-win situation between all parties involved.
What
The program draws from a rich pool of volunteers from various fields (product, QA, DS, UX, HR business development, strategy, sales, etc.) and various professional levels, including seniors, team leaders, CEOs, entrepreneurs, etc.
As a mentee, you will have the support of both a mentor and a community of like-minded individuals for a period of 3 months!
Upon completing your application, you will be matched with the most suitable mentor for you, and with your approval, the payment (donation fee), will be made to Give & Tech. At the end of the program, 90% of the fee will be paid to non-profit organizations (NPO) chosen by the mentor and Give & Tech.
Pairings between mentees and mentors will be determined based on your professional journey, current position, and future goals.
Please note that the application for the program doesn’t guarantee your participation.
If accepted, you will have ten, one-hour long personal mentoring sessions, and in addition, we will have 3 meetups (real, face-to-face, like the good old days).
This is the 5th cohort of the program; after helping over 200 mentees on their professional journey and donating over 200,000 NIS to non-profit organizations, we are excited to expand our reach and support even more individuals and causes.
Who
Being a mentee is a commitment. Your mentor can’t do your work – only offer guidance and advice.
Regardless of your level of experience – whether you’re a newcomer to the field, an intern or junior in your first job, or an entrepreneur/startup/business owner – everyone can benefit from having a mentor.
The full description is listed below.
When
The program kicks off with an opening session attended by all mentees, mentors, and representatives from the nonprofit organizations you’ll be supporting through your donations. This introductory meetup provides an opportunity for everyone to acquaint themselves with each other and share insights about their mentoring and personal development journey.
From this initial meetup onwards, our shared objective for the next three months is to support one another. Throughout this period, we’ll be accessible offline via WhatsApp and LinkedIn groups to address any queries or concerns.
As a mentee, you can also contribute to the group. If you wish to give a talk, to share a tip or an idea with the group – please do!
Your first meeting with your mentor will focus on setting specific goals for the program. Afterward, in each session, your mentor will assess your progress and assist you in overcoming challenges.
Mentorship sessions will occur weekly. The scheduling of these sessions will be coordinated between you and your mentor.
Throughout the program duration, we’ll periodically reach out to gather feedback and ensure everything is proceeding smoothly.
The midpoint meetup will center on fostering deeper connections among participants through roundtable discussions.
Finally, the concluding meetup will focus on reviewing the program, sharing experiences, and gaining inspiration for the journey ahead.
