• During the mentoring program, you will receive guidance from a mentor from Deloitte for 4 months. Together, you will boost your professional development and find your way in the Dutch labour market. You will receive support from your mentor in multiple ways, including: Setting career goals and formulating concrete next steps for your career;
  • Discovering what your talents / ambitions / competencies / skills / development points are;
  • Discovering which careers / jobs / sectors / companies / courses / trainings are a good fit for you;
  • Improving your CV / LinkedIn page / motivation letters to present yourself better in the Dutch labour market;
  • Practising job interviews;
  • Enhancing networking skills and learning how to identify opportunities to grow your network.
• During the mentoring program, your mentor will share their knowledge, skills, and professional network with you. On the other hand, your mentor can also learn a lot from you! In addition, you will learn more about the other mentors and mentees, work in general, and Deloitte in particular during the joint events and online check-ins.

• The mentoring program is not a full-time training. You will talk to your mentor about once a week for 4 months. During these meetings, you will work on your professional development. In addition, your mentor will help you to find your way in the Dutch labour market. You will also talk to the organization and other mentors and mentees during the joint events and online check-ins. If you want to follow full-time training courses, you can, of course, search with your mentor for full-time training courses that suit you.
• The mentor program is not a job interview or guarantee of a job at Deloitte. However, the mentor program does increase your chances of finding a job in the Dutch labor market because it helps you increase your network, skills and knowledge about the Dutch labour market.

We are looking forward to meeting you!
