What Happens Next?
Dear Paul,
I just want to let you know that we've received your request for mentorship and are beginning to work on a match for you. "Matchmaking" takes a little time - sometimes mentors are traveling or their work load is overwhelming - so we ask for your patience and understanding if we can't match you with your first choice, or if the matching process takes longer than expected…
Kind regards, Gayle Rigione
