A mentor who has done the job you want

One hour with a person who hires for your kind of role, or was hired for it recently, saves weeks of guessing. That is what this page will offer.

What a session is

Resume read

30 minutes. The mentor reads your resume the way a hiring manager does and says what to cut, what to move up and which numbers are missing.

Mock interview

45 minutes. Questions asked for your role at their kind of company, then plain feedback on each answer.

Changing field

45 minutes. What from your past work counts, what to learn first, which job titles to apply for in the first three months.

Offer and pay

30 minutes. How to read an offer, what the advertised ranges for the role are, how to ask for more without losing the offer.

How it will work

  1. Pick a mentor by role, level and the kind of company they worked at.
  2. Pick a time from the hours the mentor has opened.
  3. Talk by video. You send your resume or the job posting beforehand.
  4. Get notes in writing after the session, so nothing has to be remembered.

Questions about mentors

Are the mentors real people?
Yes, or there are none. A mentor is listed only under a real name, with a public profile we have checked and the companies they worked at. No mentor is invented, and software is never shown as a person.
Can I book a session today?
No. The first mentors are being selected, so nobody is listed yet and nothing can be booked or paid for.
What will a session cost?
Each mentor sets a price, shown before you book. Nothing is charged for looking, and there is no subscription for mentoring.
Is there an AI mentor?
Plus has an AI writer for resumes and letters. It is labelled as AI everywhere and is not called a mentor.
What can I use until mentors are listed?
The resume builder, a resume example for your kind of work, the free tools and the guides. All of them are free and need no account.
