On-Line Mentor Match <strong>Program</strong><br />

Career Planning is Never Over: Lend a Hand or<br />

Receive One at Mentor Match!<br />

The <strong>Society</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Toxicology</strong> recognizes the importance <strong>of</strong><br />

mentoring in the scientific and pr<strong>of</strong>essional development <strong>of</strong> its<br />

members. The objective <strong>of</strong> the new on-line mentoring program,<br />

Mentor Match, is to provide a service that matches mentees<br />

with potential mentors from the SOT membership to provide<br />

advice on career path selection, pr<strong>of</strong>essional development,<br />

and life/work balance issues. SOT members are encouraged<br />

to share their pr<strong>of</strong>essional knowledge and experience by<br />

serving as mentors for colleagues and for the next generation<br />

<strong>of</strong> toxicologists. The SOT Annual Meeting provides a great<br />

opportunity for the mentor and mentee to meet in person. We<br />

strongly encourage members <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Society</strong> to visit the Mentor<br />

Match site and register on-line as mentors and/or mentees. The<br />

Mentor Match program will develop as individuals register,<br />

allowing the quantity <strong>of</strong> pr<strong>of</strong>iles to increase to a robust<br />

combination <strong>of</strong> both mentors and mentees. The Mentor Match<br />

program is accessible to all active SOT members by visiting<br />

www.toxicology.org/ai/newcrad/mentormatch.asp.<br />

to provide them with a robust database <strong>of</strong> candidates available<br />

for career opportunities, ranging from junior- to senior-level<br />

positions.<br />

The Job Bank helps streamline the process for candidates and<br />

employers. Candidates can gain access to a variety <strong>of</strong> positions<br />

suited to their experience, areas <strong>of</strong> expertise, and desired<br />

geographical location. In addition, job seekers can see which<br />

sectors are hiring and stay abreast <strong>of</strong> new and emerging areas.<br />

Employers can attract potential candidates in a targeted<br />

and cost-effective manner through this SOT service. By<br />

having access to detailed candidate resumes, employers can<br />

determine the right match for a specific position and expedite<br />

the recruitment process. SOT Corporate Affiliates receive<br />

a reduced rate for position posting in appreciation for<br />

supporting the <strong>Society</strong> in achieving its objectives.<br />
