Pelion Alternatives: Tech Career Mentorship

About Pelion

Pelion offers a few hundred mentors, offering mentorship in multiple disciplines in Tech and Business, such as Product Management and Data Science.

Users can choose a mentor, and will pay between 4% and 6% of their income as flat fee, depending on whether you choose to pay based on your income before the mentorship, or the one after.

At the moment on writing, it’s not clear how mentorships are structured, but mentees can sign up, browse profiles based on a set of filters, and then “request” mentors to work with each other.
