Step 7. One-to-One Interaction Invite
Mode: Individual WhatsApp
Timing: After receiving intro responses
Message:
Hello Rakesh,
We would now like to have a one-to-one interaction with you as part of the onboarding journey.
This is not an interview, screening discussion or performance review.
The purpose of this conversation is simply to understand how you presently see your future, your possible direction, your uncertainties, your interests and the kind of life or work you may gradually want to move towards.
At this stage, clarity is not expected. In fact, confusion is also part of the process.
This interaction is meant to help us understand:
• how you currently think about your future,
• what kind of work or environment may suit you,
• what excites or worries you,
• and how this internship journey can become more meaningful for you.
Looking forward to seeing you on ………. at …….PM at …………..Place. A line for confirmation is appreciated.
Yours
Team Green Jobs

Conversation Agenda
“How Do I See My Future from Here?”
1. What kind of future currently attracts me?
2. What kind of work life do I think I may enjoy or dislike?
3. What type of people and environments make me feel more energetic or more uncomfortable?
4. What confuses me most about careers, jobs or the future of work today?
5. What kind of growth, learning or exposure do I secretly wish for?
6. What kind of life balance do I imagine for myself in future?
7. What kind of person would I like to gradually become over the next few years?
8. How can this internship become useful in that journey?

Expected Takeaway
By the end of this interaction:
• the intern should feel more understood,
• the mentor should better understand the intern’s direction and emotional orientation,
• and both sides should gain some clarity on how the internship experience can be shaped more meaningfully going forward.
The purpose is not career prediction.
The purpose is future conversation.
