More mentors means more breadth of knowledge and experience, resulting in a better chance of at least one person being able to answer your question. It can also mean multiple perspectives since there isn't always one right answer! -Please help spread the word by encouraging KubeCon attendees to sign up for the free session. Pre-registration for this session is required - so fill out the [MENTOR](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe6eClecYb4ZXWPpWDrk7FIqh6qPQPLLnXk9hSqC0b46sXO9Q/viewform) or [MENTEE](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdxjqDS59NE1mi42JHDvHngSxBS4lGDDZzmXOLDO7nBawFhJw/viewform) forms today. +To be respectul of each mentors time, please have succinct questions ready and a brief summary of what you've tried and what you'd like or expect to happen. For instance, an example of a poor question would be, "How do I write a controller?" An example of a good question would be, "I'd like to create a custom controller that checks for nodes that are in the 'Not Ready' state and print our their IP address. I'm not familiar with Golang so instead of using client-go I've looked at MetaController as a way to get started using Javascript. I'm having trouble with this portion of the webhook, can you please take a look?" -The session is for those who are new or not so new to the community. Mentees are paired with mentors from across the community and CNCF projects and have the opportunity to explore growing a cloud native career, getting more involved in the ecosystem or working with new, emerging projects in areas like networking or service meshes.
\ No newline at end of file +Pod mentoring will be available during KubeCon + CloudNativeCon events. You will need to register to attend to be eligible for mentoring. For those who wish to be a mentor please take a look at the [mentor-guide](mentor-guide.md). |
