RailsConf 2020 CE - Building a Mentorship Program by Noel Rappin

Building a Mentorship Program by Noel Rappin Mentorship is a great way for a newer developer to benefit from the experience of a more senior developer. While there are lots of available resources on how to be a good mentor or mentee, there are far fewer guidelines on how to set up a mentoring program within your engineering organization. I'm doing this now, and I'll share the process with you: why we decided to start a team-wide mentorship program, how we got volunteers and how we matched them, and how we followed up and what worked and what didn't. You'll get everything you need to start a mentorship program at your organization. __________ Noel Rappin is a Staff Engineer at Root Insurance.
