Be a Giver

Answer one question in two minutes.

Students and early-career professionals are asking questions only people in the field can answer. Record a short video on your phone and we'll add it to the library with your name. You don't need a Knowledge Exchange account. It's the easiest way to give back, and if you'd like to do more, you can become a Giver and mentor one-on-one.

  • One question. Pick one question and answer only that.
  • 1–3 minutes. Short is the point. Two minutes is ideal.
  • Landscape, quiet room. Hold the phone sideways, face a window, no music.
  • Start with the answer. Say who you are in one line, then answer.
