Mentoria Review – Career Counseling for Children of Jewelex Employees

83% of employers believe that hiring and retaining talent is one of the biggest challenges they face. In an era where 66% of millennials will most probably leave their current job, their opinion is far from unfounded. In times like these, human resource professionals from all over the world are racking their brains trying to figure out how to engage their employees. While fun events during festivals and lunches for employees are great, what really makes a difference is an activity that adds value to the employees’ lives. Jewelex, our corporate partner, decided to make a real, lasting difference to their employees’ lives by reaching out to their families with the Mentoria Solution.

A Little About Jewelex

A DeBeers Sightholder since 1973, Jewelex is a diamond and jewellery company in Mumbai. They are a member of the Responsible Jewellery Council for the diamond division and are known for their consistent quality, excellent customer service and transparency in operations.

As an employer, Jewelex believes their employees are their biggest asset and strives to make sure they are happy. They partnered with Mentoria to conduct an innovative employee engagement programme, where they invited the children of their employees for a career guidance workshop. Employees and their families were introduced to the Mentoria Solution that would help them get clarity about their career prospects.

The Mentoria Solution

The career guidance workshop was held over a period of three months from November 2017 to January 2018. During this period, 47 children benefited from the Mentoria Solution. As part of the solution, they took a psychometric assessment that determined their core interest areas, personality traits and abilities. This was followed by one-on-one career counselling sessions by our team of expert career counsellors; who took the children and their parents through the report, validated the test responses with real-life examples, discussed growth and development areas, and guided the children towards the top three careers they’d be happiest pursuing. The children were extremely happy to get such detailed insights into what their future career could look like.
