Mentoring
Learn alongside people who are already at the top of the curve.
diomgis mentors are practising engineers and architects, screened before their profile goes live. Mentees bring a goal; mentors bring the experience of having done it.
Any member can ask a mentor. Each mentor sets their own price.
Mock interviews
Interview coming up? Practise it first.
System design, solution architecture, ML or AI system design, coding, behavioural or a hiring-manager round, with a mentor who has run them. You get a written scorecard afterwards.
Connect, collaborate, build, learn
- ConnectMentees describe a goal; a mentor whose experience fits it says yes.
- CollaborateWork on the real thing: a design, a system you run, a decision you must defend.
- BuildLeave each conversation with something done and a clear next step.
- LearnMentoring sits next to the courses and spaced review, so it has somewhere to land.

Become a mentor
Mentoring here is for people who have built and run the systems they talk about.
Who we look for
- You have designed, built or run AI, machine learning, data or software systems in production.
- You can explain a trade-off plainly, and say when the answer is “it depends” and on what.
- You can give a few hours a month reliably, and you turn up when you said you would.
- You would rather a mentee find the answer than be handed it.
Your mentees are diomgis members. You set your own price per session, or offer sessions with no payment, and you choose how you are paid: through diomgis by Razorpay, directly by your mentees, or both. diomgis takes no commission. On a payment through Razorpay you receive the amount less Razorpay's fee on that payment, which we show you up front. You choose which requests to accept and how many mentees you take at a time, and you schedule sessions on your own video link.

A short intro call
Sometimes a conversation about how you like to mentor and what a good first session looks like.

Approval
Your profile goes live and mentees can ask you for mentoring. You choose which requests to accept.

Questions
What does mentoring cost?
Each mentor sets their own price per session, and some offer sessions with no payment. You pay only for a session a mentor schedules with you, and you see the amount first. You pay on the diomgis website by card, UPI, net banking or wallet, or directly to the mentor, as the mentor chooses. diomgis takes no commission. Once your mentor confirms a session, it cannot be changed or refunded, but once in the life of your account you can ask to move one for an emergency. See the refund policy.
Do I need to be on a course to have a mentor?
No. Any member can ask a mentor, with or without a course seat. It is a good way to see how diomgis teaches before you choose a course. When you want to go further, see the courses open for enrolment.
How do requests work?
Open a mentor's profile and send a request with your goal. You can have up to 3 requests waiting at a time, one per mentor. A mentor has 14 days to reply; after that the request expires and you can ask someone else.
What does a mentor see about me?
Your message, your level and the areas you chose, and only what you tick when you send it: your first or full name, your role, your organisation, your LinkedIn profile, your goals. Never your email address or phone number.
What happens when a mentor says yes?
They schedule a first session: a date, a time, its length and a link to their own video call, such as Google Meet, Zoom or Microsoft Teams. You get a notification, and your mentoring page shows the session in your own time zone. A session with no payment is scheduled straight away. A session with an amount to pay is awaiting payment until you pay, by the deadline the session shows, and the mentor confirms it; then the meeting details are on your mentoring page. A session not paid by its deadline is released. Until a paid session is confirmed, and at any time for a session with no payment, either of you can propose a different time or cancel it there. Your mentoring page also shows the contact details the mentor chose to share with the mentees they accept. Nothing personal is sent by email.
What if a mentor says no?
They choose a reason, such as “Not my area” or “No capacity just now”, and may add a note. You see both on your mentoring page, and can ask someone else straight away.
What is a mock interview?
A practice round of a real interview, such as system design or behavioural, with a mentor who runs them, at the price they set. Afterwards they write you a scorecard that only the two of you see. It is practice: nobody can promise you a job. How mock interviews work.
What does my profile show if I mentor?
Only what you choose: by default your first name and last initial, a persona instead of a photo, your role, and what you mentor in. Your email address and phone number are never shown publicly.
Can I be a mentor and a mentee?
Yes. Plenty of good mentors are still learning something else. One account can do both.
How long does screening take?
It depends on how quickly we can check your experience. We answer every application, including the ones we do not take forward, with a reason, on your mentoring page.
What if something goes wrong?
Tell us through the contact page. Every mentor agrees to the mentor guidelines, and we can pause or suspend a profile that does not follow them.
