At Intel I’ve participated in a few different programs where we would sign up to mentor folks in or outside of Intel.
One such program was facilitated by MentorNET and volunteers were recruited and we submitted a survey of interests, skills, whatnot. Then we were paired up with with Portland Comm College students in various STEM-related degree programs who were interested in learning about our career paths. This was a well structured program and simple for both mentor/mentees. We were expected to mentor for 4 months, but were encouraged to continue as long as both parties were finding value.Some helpful materials shared that I had retained from this program:
