What will be covered in the session?You will work closely with the mentor and 19 other mentees. The mentor will open the conversation by asking you to introduce yourself. The mentor will then introduce themselves and cover their career journey, challenges that they have faced and how they overcame these which will all be relatable to the topics provided on each mentees' registration form. You will discuss the topics as a group, what this means for you and how you can incorporate what you have learned to overcome your current obstacle. The mentoring session includes Q&amp;A section where you can seek guidance in anything else you like. To close, our mentor will ask you for some advice. We often think of the mentor-mentee relationship as one-sided, but we believe it's a two-way street. Our mentors will seek some guidance from you and you will receive their questions 48-hours ahead of the session to give you some time to prepare.
