I have worked as a stay-at-home parent for 8 years, and I'm 33. After being laid off, I decided to move into accounting, 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 Cebu, 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. Thank you for reading my story.
