Become a mentor
You'll discover here how to become a mentor at HackYourFuture Belgium.
Openness to cultural differences
Willingness to learn
Intermediate level of English (minimum). If you speak Dutch and/or French too, that's a plus.
Past experience mentoring is a plus, but is not required! We are open for anyone who wants to help and we would love to include you in our community.
You will contribute to improving the lives of others through tech education
You will become better expert of your own craft by teaching your knowledge
You will be exposed to different cultures and different ways of thinking & working
You will become a part of Migracode’s professional network, including tech Meetups, companies, NGO’s and other professional developers
Starting a mentorship journey implies that you'll also finish it. We don't finish journeys somewhere in between.
At least one offline meeting* is encouraged. Mentoring is about both online and offline meetings.
Feedback to both HYF-staff and your mentee is key.
If you can't do offline meetings because of physical mobility reasons, we respect that. If you let us know, we can ask another mentor to take over for your offline meeting.
Why do you want to join the HackYourFuture Community as a mentor?

Do you have experience with coaching/mentoring people in finding a job?
What is your connection with IT sector?
What is your passion?
