PART 4: Conclusion
Just like last year, I didn’t really like this assignment. I do think, it’s important to have someone at
the beginning of the first year that you can rely on if you have questions or problems. However, I
don’t like the fact that we have to do all these obligatory activities. I think it’s more efficient for the
mentees to just ask us questions whenever they want to via Facebook or by sending us a message
and not just at pre-specified moments for which we have to come together. Besides this, it’s also
very difficult to get everyone together and to find a date that fits everyone’s schedule. The second
year of IBM is very busy and we have to reach a lot of deadlines, limiting the dates we can meet up
with our mentees.
Overall, I think our mentees did enjoy the activities we organised. In my opinion, I think they liked the
movie the most, but I didn’t really ask them, so it’s just my own opinion of their reactions. Like I said,
I found it very difficult as a mentor to get everyone together. As for what enjoyed about being a
mentor professionally, I do like to have responsibility, so I also like it when people rely on me, when I
can help them.
