Mentoring

We're launching our Mentoring programme. Here is Victoria to explain how it works:

What Is It?

We want to make it as easy as possible for the community to share experience and know-how. So, as the first and simplest step, we’re looking for a collection of mentors happy to offer ad-hoc chats on areas of tech or career development they’ve got experience in.

How Does it Work?

We'll set up this page with browsable profiles of yourself and the other mentors. This will include a brief bio, and areas you’re open to talk about with others in the group.

Mentees can then set up talks with you in one of two ways:

• You can share an open calendar on your profile (cal.com or similar), and mentees can book in with you directly.
• You can have them contact us directly with a bit about themselves and what they’re looking to learn, and we’ll forward these onto you to open the discussion.

Let us know if you want to duck out at any time and we’ll pull down your details; the same goes for particular mentees, if you need to break it off at any point (and for any reason!) - you can manage this directly, or we can help communicate that with them.

3 things we need from you:

• A profile picture for the site (no smaller than 200x x 200px ideally)
• A brief bio (~100 words - a bit about yourself and areas you’re open to chat about)
• EITHER a link to your calendar where people can book slots (cal.com or similar, we'll put it in the site), OR the best email for us to reach out to you at with requests from potential mentees (your contact details will NOT go on the site)
