Looking for a nursing mentor: Simiyu's career change at 26
A mentor in nursing could help Simiyu with a portfolio, interviews and first-job strategy.
Anywhere in the world1,225 views
I have worked as a warehouse supervisor for 8 years, and I'm 26. After being laid off, I decided to move into nursing, and I have completed a self-study course with a project portfolio.
What I'm missing is someone who has walked this path: feedback on my CV and LinkedIn profile, a realistic view of the job market in Nairobi, and a sounding board when things feel overwhelming.
I'm hoping for one 45-minute video call a month for four months, plus the occasional email question. I'll bring specific questions and I won't waste your time.
All I can offer back is my thanks, and I'll mentor someone else once I'm settled.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
- effort
- 45 minutes a month
