TaxTalent.com (http://www.taxtalent.com) recently instituted a Mentoring Program. The program matches beginning and experienced tax professionals with more seasoned and accomplished tax specialists who have expressed an interest in providing career guidance to others.

A mentor can provide advice, support and guidance to someone who is either just beginning their career or needs assistance in getting to the next level. A mentor benefits by developing an intimate understanding of concerns and issues facing more junior staff.

This is also an opportunity for tax professionals to tap into a source of both professional and professional growth. Both parties benefit in this relationship.

As a mentor, you have much to offer.

You can help your mentoree understand the most important things s/he can be doing now to prepare for a career in tax, and help your mentoree "decode" the unwritten rules of tax work. The most important thing you can offer is your own experience, both positive and negative, as a seasoned professional.

You also have the opportunity to network with newly emerging professionals, and to recruit colleagues and successors. Perhaps most importantly, it is also a wonderful way to give back to the profession that has given you so much.
