Matchmaking & Kick Off

We are using a combination of a matchmaking algorithm and human oversight to create the optimal matches between mentors and mentees. The matchmaking algorithm pairs mentors and mentees based on various parameters, such as interests, field of study, highest degree, location, background, and motivation. This feature aims to ensure that everyone can fully benefit from the mentoring programme. 

As a mentee, you will have the option of choosing your favourite mentors from the Meet our Mentors page. Read more about the matchmaking process in the registration form above.

The pairs will be announced by email on September 27th, 2024.

The Kick Off of the mentoring programme will take place virtually on Tuesday, October 1st, 2024, from 15:15-16:15.

Meetups

Two physical, ½-day meetups between the participants of the mentoring programme will be held. Participation is not required but very beneficial to the goals of the programme. The exact time and location will be announced via email.

Closing Event

The Closing Event date is yet to be decided. Here we will share a few remarks, provide the last round of feedback, and wish each other a farewell. If the mentor and mentee wish to continue their check-ins beyond the programme, they are free to do so. You will receive information in due time via email.

If you are interested in participating in the Autumn 2023 Edition, please stay updated by joining our newsletter, following our LinkedIn or Twitter.

Matchmaking & Kick Off

The matchmaking process works as follows: Once mentors and mentees have registered, we will ask the mentees to prioritise their top 5 favourite mentors. Prioritisation will take place from February 3rd – 12th (midnight), 2023. Next, DDSA will optimise for the highest priorities. If multiple mentees have selected the same mentor as a first priority, we will perform a random distribution. If there are more mentees than mentors, we will prioritise the mentees with less experience. The pairs will be announced on February 20th.

The Kick Off of the Spring 2023 Edition will take place virtually on Wednesday March 1st, 2023, from 16:30-17.00.
