I have worked as a factory operator for 7 years, and I'm 44. After being laid off, I decided to move into UX design, and I have completed an online certificate. What I'm missing is someone who has walked this path: feedback on my interview answers, a realistic view of the job market in Buenos Aires, 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. I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
