I have worked as a call-centre agent for 17 years, and I'm 35. After a health scare, I decided to move into software testing, and I have completed an online certificate.
What I'm missing is someone who has walked this path: feedback on my resume and portfolio, a realistic view of the job market in Wales, and a sounding board when things feel overwhelming.
I'm hoping for one 45-minute video call a month for three 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
- effort
- 45 minutes a month
- format
- Online or by phone
- skills
- industry experience, patience, honest feedback

Thinking of you, Parker. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. I went through something like this 7 years ago and strangers helped me out
wishing you peace, Parker. Hope you get there. Put this on a community board in Ikeja this morning
Sending strength, Parker. Hope you get there. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
