“I was amazed by the extent to which Jewish professionals wanted to help us, students—simply because we are Jewish.”
-Ashley Steinberg, University of Pennsylvania Class of 2010’s reaction to a Mentoring event

JHP Mentoring offers students vital career guidance and networking, can get students and people who need them positions, and builds stronger professional networks all in the context of Jewish identity and community. JHP Mentoring takes place one-on-one, over the phone, in events hosted in prominent business leader’s offices, in Philadelphia and New York City, during weekend retreats, and even as on-the-job shadowing.

JHP Mentors come from ever-diversifying fields to match student and alumni career aspirations. Our Mentors represent the business, law, politics, medicine, education, government, finance, journalism, social services, communications, Jewish education, entertainment and the arts, and almost every other sector. The common trait all our Mentors share is the Jewish identity they’ve embraced and made an integral part of their career success story.

For everyone involved, JHP Mentoring transforms careers into a focal point of Jewish identity and community, so that Jewish identity goes hand in hand with career success and forging vital business networks.
