Hi Mentors👋

I want to extend an opportunity for you to take part in our Git Mentored session from Advocats and Program Equity. 🎉 As part of our ongoing commitment to enabling open source maintainers from all backgrounds - especially early careers - we're excited to offer an hour 1:1 micro-mentoring session. This is an opportunity for attendees and our community partners to engage with industry experts (aka Hubbers) on career pathing and feedback. Please note, that this is open to all Hubbers and does not require a technical background.

Workflow:

• ProgramEquity mentor gives quick intro about resume best practices and sets up breakout rooms
• Fellows are matched with mentors in breakout rooms:
  • Mentors/Mentees share their personal and professional journeys and discuss areas of interest.
  • Provide resume feedback, ask the mentee their 3-5 year planning goals, plans to achieve their goals, and discuss skills necessary to achieve these goals; what type of training should your mentee receive to grow in this field?  Be specific and give specific resources if you can.

I'm more on the support side for now though.
