The City of Stockholm’s Mentorship Program

The City of Stockholm arranges a mentorship program called Stockholmsmentor. Through the program, newly arrived expats can get a mentor who is well-established in the Swedish job market. The duration of the program is 8 months, with one meeting per month.

The purpose of the mentorship program is that the participants will:

• broaden their professional network in Stockholm.
• gain insights about Swedish working life and business culture.
• practise their Swedish in a professional context.
• gain knowledge about the different available avenues into the Swedish labour market.

The program is held a few times per year, and there are a few open spots on the next program that starts on 23 February 2022.

At this event, Mic Eyre who is one of the coordinators for Stockholmsmentor, will introduce the program and explain how it works. After his talk, speed-interviews (15 minutes) will be held individually on the phone.

Event outline:

• Information about Stockholmsmentor
• Speed-interviews

Please note:

• There are only 15 places available for this event (first-come, first-served). This means that if you registered and got a place and cannot attend, it’s very important that you cancel your registration so that the place can be given to another SDCN member.
• You need to be a resident of The City of Stockholm municipality (Stockholms stad) in order to qualify for the program.
• You need to be enrolled in some kind of Swedish course in order to qualify for the program, as you are expected to speak some Swedish with your mentor.
• You need to have a residence permit.

Welcome!

This event will be held online on Zoom. A link to the Zoom meeting will be sent to your email before the event starts (remember to check your spam folder).
