Mentee Expectations: 
The success of this program is due to the generosity of SGIM members willing to share time, insight, and experience with other SGIM members. Please review the following expectations to better understand your role as a mentee. 

• Mentees will select a mentor based on a compatibility score. As a mentee, you are responsible for inviting a compatible mentor to be matched.
• Mentees are expected to initiate communication with their mentors and meet at least once during the 2025 SGIM Annual Meeting at a mutually convenient time.
• If a mentee does not match with a mentor by May 2, 2025, they will be administratively matched. If a mentee does not communicate with their mentor by May 9, 2025, they may be removed from the program. 
• Mentees are expected to have a plan and thoughtfully manage the mentor/mentee relationship to establish goals and mutual expectations of their meeting and any subsequent communications.
• Many mentors attend their mentee’s oral and/or poster presentation(s) to provide support and feedback. If you would like feedback from your mentor, please indicate so in your mentee profile.
• After your initial meeting, you and your mentor are welcome to meet again throughout the conference or use the SGIM One-on-One Mentoring platform to chat or schedule meetings afterward.
• The mentor/mentee connection in the SGIM One-on-One mentoring platform will close on June 13, 2025.
• We ask all mentors and mentees to complete a post-program survey about their experience in the One-on-One Mentoring Program.
