2024-2025 SHRM SDSU Alumni Mentor Program

 The SHRM SDSU Alumni Mentor Program is a program that pairs up current SHRM SDSU members with SHRM SDSU alumni on an on-demand basis throughout the semester. SHRM members may review the alumni profiles below and submit a request for a mentor. We will reach out to the mentor and make the connection. The SHRM SDSU Alumni Mentor Program is an opportunity available to current SHRM SDSU members. NOTE: If a SHRM SDSU alumni's number (ex: Alumni #1) is in blue below, that means this alum may be requested at this time as they are not currently mentoring another SHRM SDSU member.

Mentor Moments: What participants have said 

Mentors

• "I love how all the mentees that I've been paired with so far have all been eager to learn and are passionate in HR. I was able to share my experience/expertise and informative resources to help my mentee succeed. I find it rewarding when I hear they've secured an internship or a new job, received a promotion, improved their career/professional/personal development, or become more involved in SHRM such as being an officer."
• "We had a good conversation on the phone. She had questions about how to get into training and searching for a job. I gave her my insights...She ended up landing a great job after we spoke, I'm really happy for her! She's fantastic and talented and has a bright future."

Mentees

• "It was great! My only regret is that I didn't participate in the program earlier, because my mentor was amazing and she helped me a lot! 
• "She gave me sample interview questions, she shared her experiences in the HR world, and she worked with me on my "about me" statement."
• "My mentor has helped me get involved with the student organization through her charisma and interest of wanting to help others learn about the field of HR. It was through my connection with her that I went out of my comfort zone to run for an officer position and get involved just like she did."
• "My mentor is knowledgeable and was always in a positive mood when I would reach out to her with questions. She is someone I want to keep in my professional life."​
