March 12, 2001: Ask the Employer

Ask the Employer.

While reading over Marcia Merrill's informative Q&A with QuintZine, we were reminded of a terrific Web site, Ask the Employer, which was created in 1998 as an e-mentoring partnership site that serves as a forum in which a registered mentor and mentee can connect online to establish a partnership based on mutual career interests and abilities. E-mentoring is an interactive relationship between a mentor and mentee through the Internet, rather than traditional networking connections, such as a colleague at work. Experienced business professionals offer their talent and advice to those they counsel, based on matching data compiled from their registered professional profile posted on the Ask the Employer site.

Ask the Employer has grown to be a full-service content site for all aspects of career management and human resources, specializing in mentoring relationships and expert career advice. Ask the Employer also publishes a Career Finder's Guide e-newsletter that includes information on career advancement, resumes and cover letters, SOHOs, employment trends and news, mentoring relationships, and tips for succeeding at work, as well as human resource information for employers.
