project overview

Preplaced is a long term career mentorship platform where we aim to provide ongoing career guidance and support from mentors across various industries who are operating at senior levels to the mentees who are looking for this guidance. The goal is to fostfostering er long-lasting relationships with the mentees, helping them make informed career decisions over time, rather than just facilitating a one-time job placement.

problem statement

Mentors on our platform have 3-6 mentees on an average to provide their mentorship and considering that our mentors have their full time day jobs, it becomes a gruesome process to complete smaller tasks such as assigning new tasks, providing resources to each mentors individually and so on.

It was our responsibility to fix this process so that mentors can focus on their quality of mentorship more rather than the grunt work within their limited time frame each day.

solution

The whole idea was to bridge the gap between the mentors and their mentees so that quality mentorship can be provided by the mentor to their respective mentees. We wanted the mentor to have a "click-away" experience when they open up our platform at the end of their day from their full time jobs so that mentors can have a breezy and light experience.


Assigning new tasks, sharing resources, everything was possible with the help of AI and mentors would simply have to click away through these screens to get the job done.

Not only this, but they could simply get other information about their mentorship profile at a single place; could be regarding their payouts, mentorship renewals, trial mentee and so on,

pre-defined actions

We had a list of pre-defined actions wherein mentors could choose an umbrella for their query to get direct results regarding their performance, payouts, trials, support and long term mentorships with their current pool of mentees.

custom widgets

For navigating to certain pages outside the AI space and taking inputs from the user, we created custom widgets to smoothen out the process along with various AI suggestions to create that "click-away" experience
