The new program turns an inaccurate, lengthy process into a data-driven launch pad for productive, career-enhancing programs

In this day and age, the majority of mentoring programs entail an extensive amount of administrative labor from individuals in the human resource management department; tedious manual tasks are required to keep the mentoring programs functioning. The mentor-employee matching process is often subjective, influenced by gut instincts and personal views.
