Speaking only for myself, I'd love nothing more than to work with a mentor, but I have no idea where to find one with both the time to dedicate and the relevant skills. Nor am I sure how I would fit it into my work schedule.

Perhaps "mentor" does not paint quite the right picture, but working with smart people (and solid professionals) rubs off, and that, in my experience, has been very useful.
