Become a Mentor
Ergon offers a personal coach volunteer for those who are seeking jobs. This can be a challenging time, with financial and familial pressures, the loss of previous employment, and worry for the future. Ergon mentors are available to accompany the job seeker throughout the employment process. The mentor will act as a case manager as well as a sounding board, seeking out resources from within and without Ergon for the mentee. While the responsibility for finding work remains with the mentee, the mentor will be available to encourage and help strategize the next steps.
Testimonials
I'm writing to say a huge thanks for Ergon's excellent resources. I recently accepted a job offer and I definitely credit my success to the support and encouragement provided through Ergon. The resume and interview prep I brought to this opportunity were far better than what I'd been working with prior to finding Ergon. It's hard to say which was more important - the excellent practical advice I received from the mentoring, webinars, and speed networking, or the encouragement and motivation I felt from knowing I had such support.

“Having people with you in the journey is amazing. I don’t have time to be down or pessimistic. So many people are out there watching out for me….
No one can do the job search for you. You have to have the desire, the motivation, and take action. But I feel so lucky, so grateful that I have a whole community to accompany me in my journey! It is very encouraging and empowering. You cannot get there alone.”

Talking to my mentee has forced me to see my own strengths and acknowledge the many positive steps I've taken in my career. I can often succumb to negative thinking in my work life, seeing only my limits. Instead, through my relationship with my mentee, I’ve been forced to recognize that I have valuable experience and expertise that is worth sharing and using to help coach someone else! Looking at myself in this way created a new tenderness for myself.
