January is National Mentoring Month – what better time to take advantage of a great CoreNet Global resource that pair mentors and mentees in corporate real estate?
CoreNet Global’s MentorMatch pairs people based on skill levels and interests, providing a framework for a mutually productive relationship.
According to SAP SuccessFactors, mentored employees:
- Receive higher compensation
- Receive a greater number of promotions
- Feel more satisfied with their career
- Feel more committed to their career
- Are more likely to believe that they will advance in their career
And it’s not just for the mentees. Benefits to mentors include:
- Greater job satisfaction and organizational commitment
- Greater career success
- Increased work-related fulfillment
Another way to provide opportunity – particularly for entry-level students and young professionals – is through Internships. Internships allow those just starting out to work alongside more senior members of the team.
CoreNet Global announced that in 2020, just over one year from its launch, its InternConnect web portal will have more than 500 internship opportunities globally for students looking to enter the corporate real estate profession.
Among the corporations posting internship opportunities are Allstate, AT&T, Citizens Bank, HSBC, Kaiser Permanente, TVA and Travelers. Corporate real estate industry service providers with internship opportunities include CBRE, Colliers, Cresa, Cushman & Wakefield, Deloitte, and JLL.
