Whether you are a recent university graduate or growing in your microelectronics career and looking for support, participating in the SEMI Mentoring Program will put you on the right track.
What is SEMI Mentoring?
SEMI Mentoring is a free online, on-demand flash mentoring program that connects you to current industry professionals. As a program of the SEMI Foundation, participating mentors are all part of the largest global semiconductor industry association.
What is flash mentoring?
One-time or flash mentoring allows mentors and mentees to schedule meetings on a one-off basis to discuss specific topics. Flash mentoring allows students to meet multiple mentors for short periods of time (30 minutes or less), enabling students to broaden their network and access a broader range of mentors. Mentees and mentors complete matching questionnaires that connect users with common interests and objectives. Scheduling and topics are driven by the mentee, ensuring the conversations always address student needs.
