A mentor in UX design could help Tshepo with a portfolio, interviews and first-job strategy.
🇿🇦 South Africa1,055 views
I have worked as a warehouse supervisor for 14 years, and I'm 43. After my children starting school, I decided to move into UX design, 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 capstone project, a realistic view of the job market in Gauteng, and a sounding board when things feel overwhelming.
I'm hoping for one 45-minute video call a month for six 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
