Mentorship 2019
Lahore School Placements Office conducted its 2nd Mentorship Program on 22nd November 2019. It was an initiative by the Placement Office for the graduating Bachelors and MBA batch. The session was conducted in TRC 5 & 6 where
about 50 students got a chance to meet top employers, get to know about the
company, hiring process, recruitment prospects and the opportunities the
organizations currently have. The students were guided to work on their
weaknesses and highlight their strengths. Students were confused whether to
invest in MBA or go directly for a job. Through the session, employers solved a
lot of queries about getting and growing in a job and told the students how to
wear confidence.
The purpose of the session was to bring alumni working at senior positions from companies preferred by our current students to guide the students.
The mentors provided guidance, information and connections to the students regarding the hiring process, job performance, career progressions, market dynamics, workplace skills/ ethics / values and long term career plans that would clarify and strengthen their career path.
The event involved one on one discussion between students and mentors. It provided students a great platform to interact with experienced professionals and get valuable guidance and network.
It was followed by dinner for both the students and the alumni who took part in the Mentorship Program.
