Mentoring Program

For new employees, the key element of learning about the job and company when they first start is Bainbridge’s mentor program.

  • Each new employee is assigned a mentor that has been with the company for over one year. The New employees will share an office with their mentor to ensure consistent, hands-on learning and guidance. The mentoring period usually lasts three to six months.
  • During this mentoring period, the two work together through a “checklist” of training initiatives including discussing certain reading materials that the mentee is going through and discussing the mentee’s progress toward performance expectations. While the program is formalized, the one-on-one interaction makes the process more informal and can be tailored to the individual’s needs.
  • The mentoring program helps to ensure consistent training and instills confidence in new employees. The relationships that are built help to foster our team-oriented environment and ensure success on each client engagement.
