Shirley needs a guide into software testing - monthly calls
Seeking an experienced software testing professional for guidance on the transition from factory operator.
🇺🇸 United States1,798 views
I have worked as a factory operator for 8 years, and I'm 53. After my children starting school, 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 CV and LinkedIn profile, a realistic view of the job market in New York, 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
- effort
- 45 minutes a month
- format
- Online or by phone
- skills
- industry experience, patience, honest feedback
