Mentorships
The Pilot Broadview Mentoring Program has been expanded! Residents with a background in:
- the Medical/Healthcare/Science fields (including psychologists/human services professions)
- the Communications and Media fields
- the legal fields
are invited to become a role model and boost the confidence of a current Purchase College student. Share your experiences with someone who is looking for support about making good decisions in school, starting a career, and developing social skills.
This pilot was formed in partnership with the Career Development Center to connect Broadview residents with current students for one-on-one conversations about careers, academic, internships, work, life experiences, and more. Broadview residents with a background in the following professions are invited to register below:
- Medical, Healthcare, and Science fields (Psychologists, human services professions are welcome)
- Communications and Media (TV/Film/Radio, Journalism, Publishing, Public Relations, and (the creative side of) Advertising)
- Legal fields
Purchase students can investigate and explore their career interests in conversations and connections with a growing Broadview network—offering an insider’s view to potential academic, professional, and career options.
The mentor-mentee relationship is about career professionals offering friendly guidance and encouragement to an up-and-coming generation. It’s based on mutual respect and openness. It’s a two-way street — mentors often say they learn as much as they teach while making a difference in the lives of young professionals.
- It’s an easy way to give back: Share your experience with a flexible commitment.
- It’s impactful: Students value your experience and feedback.
The Purchase College Career Development Center utilizes Firsthand, an all-in-one online career engagement platform designed to drive more meaningful interactions with students, applicants, alumni, and employers to match students and mentors. It’s privacy protected – all communication is routed through the Firsthand system. You can communicate with mentees through direct messaging in the system and via phone consultations over a dedicated conference line.
Note: Training is provided periodically and required prior to student interaction.
