I have always been very vocal about getting your mentor and
mentoring others to give back to the community that has been kind to you.
The SIPM community website is build on the grounds of
finding your mentor- locally and globally. Apart from the obvious reasons you
should get a mentor (see bullet points with links below), here are a few
others:
- Finding a mentor when you have plans to move countries-It can be beneficial to have a ally who understands the cultural aspect as a local and can advise you on as required situation. It can definitely give you a heads up in meeting the right people; your mentor already knows them all. Ask for introductions.
- Get published- look around for doing some research oriented work may be, to get your name co-published in blog posts, journals, books etc.
- Be a part of a bigger venture- Find out ways to contribute to the community by discussing it with your mentor- join NGO’s, volunteer your time and add them up in your resume.
