BU Mentor

Many college students begin their post-graduation education experience with limited "real world" knowledge about the career fields they ultimately would like to pursue. Recognizing this, the Smith Career Center has developed a network of BU alumni, parents, employers and friends willing to assist students by sharing information about their professions. The BU Mentor program provides a means of connecting students with these volunteers.

After reading a brief "profile" developed by each mentor volunteer, students may select individuals to contact. Mentor volunteers can assist students by providing one or more of the following:
  • Career information/Industry information (How to use a specific degree)
  • Informational interviews
  • Job shadowing
  • Practice/mock interviews
  • Employer information
  • Employment leads (internship or full-time)
  • Relocation information
The Smith Career Center uses eRecruiting to manage the BU Mentor program. Upon registration, mentors receive an email with user name, password and complete instructions for setting up a mentor profile within eRecruiting. Mentors will also have the ability to network with other mentors and access job postings appropriate for experienced professionals.

To volunteer as a BU Mentor, please complete the registration form below. For more information contact Dawn Koeltzow at dkoeltzow@bradley.edu All items in red are required for submission
