ADPList’s Top 1% Mentors and Rising Stars — April 2024
Celebrating the contributions of our world-class mentors
April 2024 Snapshot
The ADPList Mentor Community is in full stride! In the month of April, ADPList Mentors conducted 8,150+ 1:1 mentorship sessions in 36 different languages. Although the majority of ADPList sessions are conducted in more widely used languages such as English, Portuguese, Spanish, and Chinese, we are fortunate to have a vast community with opportunities to connect with Mentors who speak Korean, Arabic, Czech, Dutch, Belarusian, and more.
Our top contributors were Mentors in the United States (2,700+ sessions), and the most active day of the week for mentoring was Tuesday (but Friday was a close 2nd)! The ADPList Mentor Community also brought 5,450+ learners together for group sessions like Beyond your CV: Jobs Search & Side Gigs by Arnaud Saintemarie and Dev Hand Off Like A Boss: Workshop + Q&A by Kai Tran and Björn Büttner.
