Network Up Career Mentor
Are You (or a friend or colleague) Ready To Help Someone Network Up?
Network Up is a short-term mentoring program offered by Britepaths and the Financial Empowerment Center at South County that matches under- or unemployed adults with a volunteer mentor. Mentors and mentees meet two to five times for a conversation focused on helping the mentee create or expand his/her professional network; and establish a career strategy and job search plan. We especially need mentors who work or have worked in the fields of technology/IT, nonprofits and accounting, but we welcome professionals in all fields in Northern Virginia/DMV.
Mentors provide a wealth of experience, knowledge, and networking connections to help mentees land — and succeed in — the right job for them!
Please Note: Network Up mentoring is being conducted virtually until further notice.
Are You Eligible to be a Mentor? You Must Be:
- An established professional living in the Northern Virginia area
- Looking for an opportunity to become involved in your community
- Interested in helping people develop their professional goals and networking connections
- Willing to use your expertise and knowledge to help someone advance their career
Network Up is NOT a job placement program. Rather, it is a workforce development opportunity designed to help someone achieve their career goals.
