Have you had luck finding a mentor? How did you go about it? I feel like it has to happen somewhat organically but that seems hard to do.

I agree that it usually works better when it happens organically. I’d start by building relationships with people whose judgment you respect, asking specific questions here and there instead of formally asking them to be a mentor right away. Over time, if they’re consistently helpful and invested, it can naturally turn into that kind of relationship.

Thanks!

My company has a formal mentor program that I haven’t signed up for yet, but I definitely feel like organically is more effective for building long-term relationships

I have a friend who was let go a few months into his first job after college (reason: the manager felt like he wasn't grasping the training content to the level that was expected). He's worried about if he should put the experience on his resume anyway, if he does will recruiters ask why he had such a short time at this place, and what will recruiters think if he explains he was let go. What are some things recruiters expect from candidates in this situation to continue considering them?
