Become a COMPETE early-career mentor!

STEMatch COMPETE provides low-income community college students enrolled in tech programs with the additional work skills training, professional mentoring, and paid internships they need to qualify for - and succeed in - entry-level tech jobs.

COMPETE’s early-career mentoring is an important element of the program, helping students build the kind of “professional capital” critical to starting and building a career in tech.

As a COMPETE early-career mentor, you will:

  • Meet 2 hours a month between February and June, on your schedule (virtually)

  • Offer advice and coaching on early career milestones like building a resume, preparing for and practicing for interviews, and exploring career pathways

  • Give back and make a huge impact by sharing lessons learned from your career experiences

“I enjoyed the opportunity to share my experiences with a student who is just beginning the journey in the technical world.”
