This is a community sourced question and answer!
Setting custom questions can help you in many ways, including:
filtering which mentees to schedule a session with
gaining a better understanding of what problem to help mentees with
settting expectations with mentees on the scope of your sessions
Here are some examples from our community of mentors:
What is the goal of this session?
What is your longer-term goal with mentorship?
What challenges do you face? And how do you think I can help you?
What is your employment status?
How many years of experience do you have?
