[quote=Anonymous]Through a professional organization I’m sometimes matched with young mentees. One reached out for job hunting advice in a long, rambling email that explained her involvement in all sorts of activities and programs. Many of them were unrelated to my profession/her major. There were also a few paragraphs about her personal problems - health, money, family. TMI. I ignored those and responded with some advice related to my profession, and some general advice about shaping her resume. Now I’m wondering if I should have ignored the email. The personal information came off as very needy, victim like. And the rambling and disjointed activities make me wonder about her mental health. I tend to be too accepting of crazy, which is why I’m questioning whether I should have stayed out of all of it. [/quote]
