Our mentee says …

I received a really great mentor! He is a co-founder of a company in a field similar to mine and was therefore perfectly able to accompany, motivate, encourage and advise me on my own way to self-employment as a coach.

Now I myself lead the group of female doctoral students at MentorMe!

Dr. Anna-Maria Beck

Coach

Our mentee says …

I joined MentorMe as a mentee because I come from a working-class family, so I didn’t have any professional contacts that worked in my field. Plus, the MentorMe program was a great opportunity to keep learning and growing, and ensure I was better positioned to get hired in the future. This is my second year in the program.

Iuna Hoffmann

Partnership Manager

Our mentee says …

I wouldn’t be where I am today without MentorMe, my mentor, and the whole community. They really helped me to visualize my goals, pursue them, and stay on track. To me, MentorMe embodies commitment, solidarity, belonging, power, motivation, guidance, and inspiration. Thank you so much to everyone involved!

End of November
the program year starts with a big kick off event with all mentees, mentors & the MentorMe team.

November – October

Starting in November, the program will run for 12 months, during which you as a mentee will take advantage of the mentoring, participate in events & trainings and be an active part of the community.

How to sign up as a mentee!

Registration

You fill out the registration form, determine the amount of your mentee contribution, and pay a €30 fee so we know you’re serious. This amount will be credited to you later.

Matching

You will be redirected to the matching platform. There you fill out the matching questionnaire. Based on your information, mentors will be suggested to you – until you are satisfied.

Payment

Once you are matched with the mentor of your dreams, you will be asked to pay for your mentee membership. As we are a social company, the membership fee is based on your financial situation.

Mentoring

You contact your mentor and you arrange your first session. In parallel, you choose your monthly career events and networking opportunities from the MentorMe event calendar.

What do you pay for a mentee membership?
