In this segment, John Mertic, Director of Program Management for Open Mainframe Project at the Linux Foundation, discusses their outreach for attracting potential mentees. He explains their two main avenues, online outreach through their website and through university and academic partnerships. While these are the two main approaches, he tells us that word of mouth also plays a part and they have had mentees apply through this approach too.
