Requests

Hey, I wanted that the team adds a few people from the finance domain, especially executives, Investment Bankers, M&A. That would be of great help as I am currently trying to get into finance. Thanks for the help !

I just wrote 10 minutes to a mentor I would like to book myself to. Then I had a notification, checked in in a different tab, and the whole text disappeared. This is very nasty bug.

Filtered results include mentors who have upcoming availability but let all session requests be auto-declined after a few days. This makes it very difficult for mentees to find new mentors, and I've heard it is especially disheartening for new users. I know multiple people who have left the platform because of this experience. I highly recommend adding an algorithm/function to check and see how many session requests were accepted vs. declined, and how many were done automatically vs. manually. My recommendation: If (the past five session requests were auto-declined) OR (the past five sessions were auto-accepted AND the mentor no-showed for all five sessions), then turn off the mentor's session and email them with directions for how they can turn their session back on. Else, keep the mentor's sessions active, and continue to allow users to request sessions. Please make it easier for mentees to find mentors who are actually available.

When I was looking at changing job, I wanted to find mentors who worked in different company sizes, to know how it is and help me make a decision, such as: small startup, medium size, 1k+ employees, and also in-house and agency.

Once I send out a rescheduling request, I cannot edit it until the mentee accepts or rejects it. It would be great if I can withdraw/edit or cancel my rescheduling request WITHOUT CANCELING THE SESSION. Thank you!

As of now, if I update my overall availability in timeslots, I need to go to each 1:1 format I have, and change the time slots by changing the selection in the drop-down. Ideally these should already be i sync if I had selected "default timeslots" as opposed to custom.

Whenever we open the booking modal, select the date and time, and start typing a message. However, before confirming the booking, we switch to another browser tab to check their calendar or respond to an email. When return to the booking modal, all their selections and input are lost, forcing them to start over

Dear Team, I am Vishal, a new and active member of the ADPList community. I am truly grateful to have discovered a platform that bridges the gap between students and mentors, fostering valuable learning opportunities. However, I am deeply disappointed by an ongoing issue that many students, including myself, are facing. The primary concern is that mentor sessions are automatically approved upon booking, yet many mentors fail to show up. I completely understand that mentors have other commitments and are generously offering their free time to guide students. However, a significant number of mentors remain inactive for days, leading to unattended sessions. This not only disrupts students' schedules but also causes immense disappointment, as they set aside time from their busy routines with the hope of gaining meaningful insights. A simple yet effective solution would be to remove the auto-approval feature and instead require mentors to manually accept sessions. This would ensure that they acknowledge their availability before confirming a booking, preventing unnecessary cancellations and no-shows. I sincerely request you to address this issue and implement necessary changes to improve the reliability of the mentorship experience. I truly appreciate the efforts of ADPList in creating this incredible platform, and I hope this concern will be taken into serious consideration. Best regards, Vishal
