• Join their Mentoring Program!-In this program the Philly Ad Club matches students up with professionals in their desired field of work. If you were to join the program, you would have a mentor who you would meet with at-least twice a month to talk and “to share knowledge and experiences in order to further develop the skills of the mentor/mentee.” I strongly suggest signing up as a member of the Philly Ad Club, so you can be a part of this program if nothing else. Talking with a professional in the field is a great learning experience, and a great networking opportunity.Learn more about the Mentoring Program Here.
