Grow your network, grow your career. Mentorship is the most effective way to build your network and career. Not everyone has the same access, so we built Merit for the under-networked tech worker to grow their craft, career, and confidence. Merit connects tech talent to grow their craft, career and community. Its is as simple as picking a topic, person and time. We connect curious, eager members with mentors who want to impact the tech industry for the better. Our vision is a real meritocracy for the tech industry, and we’ll get there, one conversation at a time.
