Take heart. Its your turn to be the mentor you want to see in the veterinary world.

Did you have a mentor in your first job? Based on our research, we'd guess many of you didn't. But that doesn't mean it's too late to turn the tide.

The study also indicates it's a lack of mentorship pushing some millennials to move on, with 63 percent reporting their leadership skills are not being fully developed. The 2018 dvm360 Vet School Survey examined veterinarians' opinions about how prepared they were for their first year of practice.
