Frequently Asked Questions

What can I ask?

Literally anything to help with your academic or professional development. There are thousands of alumni, faculty, staff, and friends that can help with class projects, building and growing a startup, or figuring out career options.

What is a good question?

Think of your question as an advertisement. Share who you are, what you are doing, and what you need help with. Keep it short and sweet. Here’s a short video on how to craft a great question that will get you results and help build your network.

Can I ask a follow-up question?

Yes, of course! Once we make a match you’ll have direct, one-to-one communication and can ask additional questions.

Who will see my question?

We send your request to the most relevant and available alumni, faculty, and staff based on your question.

Can I request someone specific to receive my question?

No. We make our matches based on availability, proximity, experience, and skills.

Is there a limit to how often I can ask?

No. You can ask as many questions as you would like. In fact, we encourage it as this is the simplest way for you to build your professional network.

Will my questions and responses be confidential?

Your question will not be made public. It will be seen only by matched experts and a handful of administrators.

How long will it take to get an answer?

I was really impressed with how easy it was to get in contact with alumni. I just had to submit a question and I heard back from multiple alumni within days. Super easy and helpful! I thoroughly enjoyed my experience. It’s quite awesome to see just how large the community is, and really encouraging to see how willing alumni are to help out current students.

Definitely recommend.

After submitting my question, within a day I had multiple alumni offering me help and guidance. Several of whom were more than willing to connect with me on LinkedIn and review my resume for tips and editing suggestions. Perhaps the best part about my experience is that it did more than help with the simple question I asked. I believe it played a large role in helping me land my Co-op position.

The process took all of about 5 minutes to submit my question and I received so much great feedback from different alumni.

The mentors were so insightful! One hopped on a video call and shared a lot of valuable feedback, while pushing me to think outside the box. I am going to meet with another soon. They are investing so much time and effort in connecting me with incredible resources and people. They are really going above and beyond to leverage their networks. It means the world!

It has never been simpler to get help from others that have done what’s ahead of you.
