How do I choose the right mentor for my career?

Choosing a mentor involves identifying someone whose experience aligns with your career goals. What specific areas do you want guidance in?

I'm looking to advance in marketing, especially digital marketing.

Great! Look for mentors who have a strong background in digital marketing, perhaps someone who has successfully led campaigns or has industry connections.

Should I approach someone I admire directly?

Yes, reaching out directly can be effective. Be respectful of their time and express why you admire their work and how you think they can help you.

What if they say no?

If they decline, don't take it personally. Keep looking for other potential mentors, and consider asking for recommendations from your network.
