This page has more content. Based on the questions we have from each of you, we will add them to the list if the same questions come several times. The first questions are based on what we think you are wondering about.
When a company finds your profile interesting, the company will contact you directly. If your profile is anonymous, the company will send you a request to look at your profile. Then you can either accept or reject as you’d like.
Look at it as a part of the negotiation with your new employer, included in your talk about your salary and benefits package, you can add «a sign-on bonus». A sign-on bonus usually comes in the form of a “one-time” lump sum pay-out paid to you on a date that has been previously agreed upon. (We recommend to both you and the company, to not to have a due day before the trial period is over and you have both agreed you will continue in the job). It can also be that the company comes with other solutions for your salary and benefits package that also includes your expectation for the “sign-on bonus”. How your package will look is a negotiation between the company and you. But make sure you have it in writing.
If it’s a headhunting company/recruitment company that contact, you – Our recommendation is then to ask for your sign-on fee and get this in written that they will pay it to you. But still, this is between you and them to decide.
It’s always a risk that some will recognize you. This risk is up to you to take/not take. It’s your choice to register on SheSkillz Global. We do what we can to make your profile anonymous, but we cannot give a 100% guarantee. Also in cases where the technology for some reason does not work, this is something you have to take into account when registering. Some information on your profile cannot be hidden. It is always visible to members. This includes details such as your job title, gender, education and languages, etc. In your “My CV/Profile ” page, by using the I’M NOT ANONYMOUS option you can see how your anonymous profile will be displayed to the companies. Please refer to our PRIVACY POLICY and SheSkillz Global INDIVIDUAL USER AGREEMENT for more information here.
Making a strong first impression will help you increase your chances of getting a new job or present yourself as a mentor or present yourself to the mentors. In this video you will present yourself to the companies, so they get to learn a little more about you. Before you start to tape your video, think about what you want to say and think about the background when you’re recording. Make sure that you have something on that does not take the attention away from your face and that your hair looks nice. We all like people that smile, but make sure there is a mix between being personal and professional. To try a couple of times and do retakes is quite normal. (If you are organised with what you want to tell, you can tell a lot in 1.5-2 min).
No, you cannot be invisible as a mentor and/or a mentee.
Yes, you can be both a candidate and a mentor.
Both the mentors and mentees are given a questionnaire, seven questions. Based on how the mentor wishes to guide their mentee and how the mentee wishes to be mentored, the mentors and mentees are matched. Based on this the Mentor matches with a mentee who they believe is the best for them.
Â
It’s the mentor who is in the “decision-making role” here. They look at the profiles of the mentees and send a request to the mentees for whom they think they can be the best mentor. Then it’s up to the mentee to accept or not.
Yes, you can. But remember to not take on more mentees than you can follow up without decreasing the quality of your mentoring.
No. (Read answer to Why should I be a mentor?)
We aim to build a global community where professionals from different countries and cultures will meet as mentors and mentees after being matched based on aspirations and experience.
Â
For a female talent with ambitions, developing their full potential can be challenging. Plus, they often lack a satisfying professional network and role models to look up to and talk with.
Â
Luckily, an increasing number of experienced professionals are eager to help them succeed.
Â
With our mentoring network, SheSkillz Global aims to offer female talent a safe and inspiring place to reflect on the sometimes complex moments in their professional journeys and helping them to make informed decisions about their next steps.
Â
Mentors will come from different professions and countries but with a common trait: A great professional experience in their field of expertise combined with a readiness to invest a few hours per year (4 sessions a 1-1,5 hour) to be part of a global community aiming to build a world where talent has no gender.
Â
Besides sharing your own professional experience as a most valuable input with your mentee, you will:
Engage with and learn from a new thriving generation
Exchange with your peers, mentors, from different countries and backgrounds
Get new insights on the global realities of work
Â
We firmly believe that our global mentoring network is poised to be a gamechanger and hope that you will accept our invitation to join us in this exciting and rewarding endeavour.
No, you cannot have more than one mentor.
For the mentee there is a smaller administration fee 250 EUR/CHF + VAT which will be used to develop this mentor program.
Our vision is “A world where talent has no gender”, a vision that should not technically even be needed in 2022. But the sad fact is that the report from the World Economic Forum concludes that it will take more than 130 years to achieve gender parity, with the amount of development we continue to make today in the world. This report also shows us that men have many channels to promote and visualise their education, competence, experiences, and ambitions. The world clearly needs this platform, and the day our vision is achieved we will open it up for talented men too. We hope men around the world agree with us and help support us in all the ways they can to promote women in their network, so we can reach our vision together.
You are welcome, if you feel this platform is for you as a candidate or mentee, based on what you have read about the background and why we created this platform and based on the fact that this platform has a goal to actively do something with today’s lack of gender equality in the “world of jobs”, you are welcome. Only you know what feels correct for you and if SheSkillz Global will be a good place to promote yourself.

One of the challenges in the world today: Diversity and Equality are on the agenda of a growing number of companies, organisations, and governments worldwide. Besides the imperatives of equality and equity, they have realised that they can no longer afford to forgo the huge untapped talent pool of professional women.
Nevertheless, although talent is globally in short supply, women are still underrepresented on non-executive boards, in executive positions both in companies and in the not-for-profit sector, as well as in areas such as sports management or cultural institutions.
Despite women being better educated than ever before, they still encounter an uneven playing field in most countries and industries. Women clearly do not get the same dividends for education as men do. And at the same time, we often hear: “We cannot find the women that are qualified and/or willing to take the job”.
“Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.”
On SHESKILLZGLOBAL.COM, professional women from all over the world will connect and engage with a supportive community to give their professional development a whole new perspective.
A platform for female talents from all over the world to help them build and accelerate their career journey
IT tools to match skills and ambitions to bring women new professional opportunities and give them access to experienced mentors
Companies can no longer afford not to invest in attracting female talent. Employer branding needs to show the investment on gender equality. So for this reason the platform is also A place for companies, to meet and promote themselves and advertise open positions to attract local and international untapped female talent.
They know the companies on the platform are welcoming women.
Â
Based on our own experiences and research we have added the option for anonymous candidate profiles/driving themselves the privacy process. Still, the companies can see how well the anonymous candidate matches their requests.
Â
In some professions, it’s normal to have a sign-on bonus. We want to also keep these candidates on the platform. If the candidates have added a sign-on bonus it will be visible right away and won’t come as a surprise later. This can be part of their salary/package negations and won’t be paid right away.
Â
To be a part of a community with mentoring and access to our Magazine, toolbox and in the future different interesting services.

What is important for you as a company: When adding an advertisement for an open position(s) on SheSkillz Global, it’s important that you also have made an advertisement in other place(s) so also men/others that do not feel themselves as women can find the open positions and apply.
They are then welcome, if you feel this platform is for you as a candidate or mentee, based on what you have read about the background and why we created this platform and based on the fact that this platform has a goal to actively do something with today’s lack of gender equality in the “world of jobs”, you are welcome. Only you know what feels correct for you and if SheSkillz Globalwill be a good place to promote yourself.
