Pair mentors with mentees.

J&J Cross-Sector Mentoring Program utility that matches mentors with mentees.

Applications Format

• In MS Forms, export the applications to excel. Do this for both mentors and mentees.

• Combine these into a single excel file, with the mentor applications on a mentor worksheet and the mentees on a mentee worksheet.

• Add a third worksheet titled favor. * Cell A1: wwid * Cell B1: favor * Filling out the remaining rows of this worksheet is optional, but the worksheet and its headers are not. * If there are any mentees you want to give priority to, add their wwid to column A. Add a positive integer to column B. Default to assigning a favor of 1 to these mentees. That alone with give them preference over all others. If you want to give any mentees on this sheet priority over others on the sheet, then give them a higher number. You can use as many different numbers as you like.
