community to find the right Mentor
Primary users for the platform will be the mentors

and the professionals. A mentor’s main role will
be to share his knowledge by his mentorship
program in the form of posts, discussions and
answering the questions asked by the learners. A
professional’s main role will be to gain
knowledge, initiate discussions and ask
questions. To initiate online learning, both the
online mentor and the learning professional
need a professional environment that is provided
on the ‘Find a mentor’ platform.
What makes ‘Find a mentor’ different

from other platforms?
Despite having one knowledge of one domain,

people are always eager to learn new things and
for this, they need a professional mentor who
can guide them and share their experience in
their respective industries. A mentorship
program can be a great way to share knowledge
and help someone become successful in their
personal or professional life. But many
professional mentors are often too busy to
commit to regular meetings, or they have a hard
time connecting with people seeking help. On
‘Find a mentor’ platform, prospective mentors
and mentees can be matched, based on similar
interests, location, and availability.
At all stages of one’s career, professional

mentors play an important role. Unfortunately, for
many people, finding a great mentor remains a
challenge.
For finding a mentor, people usually visit different

portals and most of them are paid, in the market,
there are 100s of portals but mentees usually go
through a bad experience with the quality of
mentorship programs offered on them. So
people are usually afraid to use these portals
because no one wants to spend their hard-
earned money on an online learning program
which is not fruitful for them. One can’t judge the
program or the mentor on the basis of review
because some platforms provide fake reviews
and ratings to attract the user.
Another biggest problem is the availability of a

mentor, because being an employee of any
industry, they always face trouble finding the
right mentors for business due to lack of time
and resources. On this platform, we provide an
equal facility to both user experts(mentor) and
mentee(professional) to explore the things that
we are offering in our platform. Mentors can
organize live conferencing for sharing the
industry knowledge and people who are
following him/her can watch live video and add
the comment. Mentees can ask the question
from their preferred mentor and send them a
reminder.
In every industry, there are around four types of

people:
First, the type of people who just started their

career and are in an early stage of a professional
career and require mentors for business.
Second, the type of people who have already

started their career and reached a mid-level
after working 5 to 6 years in any industry, at this
time, they want to learn new things in order to
take the company to the next level and can
teach them their junior. Learning from an
experienced professional mentor from the same
industry is always better than learning by oneself.
Often people don’t have time after office hours.

They have to take care of family and spend
quality time with them. People rarely get time to
learn new things. So the idea of ‘Find a mentor’
project is basically to connect professionals to
experts for learning and exploring new things
that are happening in the industry.
Third, the type of people who have the

knowledge of their respective industry may
become the mentor to professionals. Mentors
can reply to the question which was being asked
by their mentee, on the platform we connect the
mentor and mentee so that mentee can ask the
question which he may have and after a certain
time mentee can poke them in order to send
them a reminder.
Fourth, the type of people who can play a dual

role, i.e; being registered as an expert, can switch
the profile as professional and can follow other
experts.
USP of ‘Find a mentor’

1. Professionals are directly able to interact with
the mentors and ask them questions.

2. A professional can ask a maximum of 2
questions to a particular mentor so that the
mentor would not be stuck on one person
only and can interact with other professionals
as well.
3. Mentors may sometimes forget to answer the
questions asked by the professionals due to
their busy and hectic lives. Thus, the latter can
“Poke” the former to remind them about
answering their asked questions.
4. Poking can be done only 2 times to maintain
professionalism and to prevent mentors from
getting annoyed.
5. Mentors can stream videos live in their posts
using YouTube.
6. Mentors can host a Webinar in their posts
using YouTube.
7. A person can have both a Mentor and a
Professional account for the same Email-
ID/Phone no.
8. Privacy of the Mentor is maintained as their
posts and activities can only be seen by the
people who follow them(Professional can
follow a Mentor only if the Mentor approves).
