But he’ll also know when you’re ready

Luckily, your partner will also know when you are ready for an opportunity more than someone else might. Purely professional contacts might just focus on surface things like where you studied/whom you know/what jobs you’ve already had. But your partner knows more detailed facts about your skillset and knowledge, and may push you to go after something when another mentor would have told you to wait.
