About You

Basic contact information so we can reach you.

Used for identity verification only. Not shown publicly.

This is how you'll appear to mentees on GuidedD.

Your legal name is held securely and only used as part of our review and verification process.

Required for our founding cohort — it helps us verify your background quickly.

Your Professional Background

We look for professionals with real-world experience and thoughtful perspective — not formal coaching credentials.

PDF, Word, or text file. We use this to verify your background and experience.

Only relevant if you plan to discuss areas that touch on regulated fields. Listing a credential does not mean you are authorized to give licensed advice through GuidedD.

A second reference may be requested if you advance to a later stage.

Your Motivation

We want to understand how you think about mentorship — in your own words.

This is one of our most important matching questions — be as specific as you can.

This helps us understand whether you can translate your experience into practical guidance for others — not just whether you are accomplished.

Availability & Session Preferences

We want mentorship to work around your life, not the other way around.
