I was wondering if anyone here had experience using a mentor? I'd really like to find a career mentor, but my family and friends have limited connections.
I am mainly looking for help clarifying my academic and career goals and to get actual advice from a professional. I'm currently a Senior in a large, northeastern university, pursuing a Bachelor's degree in English, and considering graduate school. I'd like to speak to a professional who has leveraged their liberal arts degree into a good career.
I've been doing a bit of research and found one company so far that seems to provide what I'm looking for- Mentorra. The idea is that it would provide a means of connecting with mentors that are industry experts. Do any of you have experience with mentorra or suggestions about how to go about this?
