Mentoring Program
The HR/NY Mentor Program matches students interested in the field of Human Resources (HR) with seasoned HR professionals. The program is designed to give students the opportunity to learn what HR is really like, to gain insight into practical HR applications, to obtain career advice and to network with experienced practitioners. This program provides HR professionals a chance to share their knowledge and develop a junior HR colleague. Mentors and mentees are matched based on a wide variety of criteria and when, where and how you meet will be agreed upon by the two of you.
