Exclusive 7-week mentoring opportunity for Lincoln students

Would you like to find out what it’s like to work in internal communications, gain experience by completing an industry inspired task, and receive mentoring from an industry expert?

The I Chose Internal Communication mentor scheme is a collaboration between the Institute of Internal Communications and the University of Lincoln Careers & Employability service. The scheme seeks to support students by helping you gain industry insights, practical experience, and access to professional networks.

Mentoring is a professional relationship in which a more experienced person (the mentor) shares their experience and knowledge with someone less experienced (the mentee). There are many ways mentoring can help you; these include:

· Developing your career potential

· Gaining insight into professionalism in the workplace

· Supporting with your skill development and recognition

· Improving your confidence

· Building your awareness of what employers are looking for

· Help to network and discover who and what is ‘out there’

The I Chose Internal Communications mentoring scheme will take place for seven weeks between 18th October 2021 and 10th December 2021.

Whilst we will aim to match all students with a mentor, this may not always be possible. If a mentor is not found for you, you will be contacted for further support.

Please complete this Expression of Interest form to apply.

Applications close at midnight on Sunday 3rd October.
