About the role
Sign up with Be A Mentor to be a Virtual Mentor to a struggling youth. We need your special skills and perspective to show a young person what opportunities they have and give them the confidence to work towards big goals. A Mentor is a trusted caring adult that spends at least one hour per week with their mentee using Be A Mentor's Virtual Mentoring Platform. Mentors focus on goal setting, homework help, and career exploration. While there may be a focus on homework help in the meetings, these sessions are more than just tutoring. Mentees form a personal relationship with their mentor to build resilience, social engagement, and a support network. Virtual mentoring removes barriers of distance, requires no commute time, and can offer a flexible schedule. However, mentors must be in the United States. Due to our current background check system we are unable to accept anyone outside of the US at this time. Mentoring is life changing for youth. Mentors Provide: One-on-one attention Study skills Academic support Goal setting Encouragement for success Sign up here:http://beamentor.org/virtual Highlight the url above, right click and select "go to..." to open.

Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
