Looking for a software testing mentor: Robert's career change at 37

A mentor in software testing could help Robert with a portfolio, interviews and first-job strategy.

I have worked as a call-centre agent for 11 years, and I'm 37. After a health scare, I decided to move into software testing, and I have completed a bootcamp. 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 Auckland, 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. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
