2024 Mentorship Program

The Sloan Sports Analytics Conference Mentorship Program is focused on undergraduate students, graduate students, and those early in their career with an interest in sports. The Sloan Sports Analytics Conference is committed to elevating and broadening inclusion in sports by creating opportunities for those who may not otherwise have access to similar mentorship. Accordingly, we encourage applications from individuals who have experienced challenges in their path, including, for example, students who come from low socioeconomic means, attended institutions with low admittance rates to top-tier colleges, or were the first of their family to attend college, as well as applicants who have devoted substantial time to service advancing diversity and inclusion in their communities.

Applications for the 2024 Mentorship Program are now closed.

Program Details

  • One ticket to attend the 18th Sloan Sports Analytics Conference
  • Mentorship pairing with a senior professional in the sports industry for 6 months
  • Networking opportunities with other mentees and mentors, career advice panels, and skill-building workshops through in-person/virtual programming
  • Applicants were selected based on their demonstrated interest in the sports industry from their responses to the short answer question in the online application

Career Board & Resume Book Terms of Service

The MIT Sloan Sports Analytics Conference offers the job posting platform and resume database only and makes no recommendations or endorsements regarding potential employers, employees, or job postings. Conference organizers are not in a position to review the merits of potential employers, employees, or job postings. All hiring, scheduling, and compensation for job postings are handled directly between the employer and candidate.

Eligibility to access the career board as a potential employer or employee lasts from the time of ticket purchase for that year’s conference until tickets for the following year’s conference go on sale (usually around October, six months before the conference). For the 2023 conference, access starts from the time the job board is launched in November 2022 until tickets go on sale for the 2023 conference.

For Candidates:

By submitting your resume to the 2023 MIT Sloan Sports Analytics Conference resume database (the “Database“), the organizers of the MIT Sloan Sports Analytics Conference (the “Organizers“) and certain employers (the “Participating Employers“) will have access to information about you and your interest in employment opportunities.

You may choose to limit the amount of personal information in your resume, and the Organizers encourage you to do so. Personal information includes your name, address, telephone number, and/or email address (“Personal Information“). We suggest that applicants include name and email addresses only. Under no circumstances should you include sensitive information, such as your social security number, passport identification number, or drivers’ license number.

If you choose to include Personal Information in your resume, both the Organizers and the Participating Employers will have access to such Personal Information and may use this information to contact you directly about employment opportunities. If you have questions or concerns about the use of your Personal Information by a Participating Employer, you should review the privacy policy for such Participating Employer, as neither the Organizers nor the MIT Sloan Sports Analytics Conference are responsible for the use of your Personal Information by a Participating Employer.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Organizers will not use your Personal Information, as submitted in a resume, for any purpose other than as stated herein, but the Organizers cannot guarantee that third party users of the Database (including the Participating Employers) will not use your Personal Information for other purposes, such as online marketing.

You may request removal from the Database at any time, but the Organizers cannot guarantee that such removal will result in removal of your Personal Information from the databases and records of Participating Employers.

For Employers:

This user ID and password grants you access to the 2023 MIT Sloan Sports Analytics Conference resume database (the “Database“) solely for the purpose of reviewing and contacting potential job applicants about employment opportunities. By accessing the Database, you expressly agree that you will not use the name, address, telephone number, email address, or any other personally identifiable information of any job applicant for any other purpose, including without limitation, online marketing. You also agree not to distribute the resumes or unique user ID and password to any unauthorized users.
