Xiu needs a guide into UX design - monthly calls
Xiu, a hospitality worker, is retraining for UX design and is looking for a mentor for monthly calls over six months.

I have worked as a hospitality worker for 17 years, and I'm 55. After being laid off, 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 CV and LinkedIn profile, a realistic view of the job market in Illinois, 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

Sending strength, Xiu. Looking forward to the next update. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Blessings.
hope the shop reopens soon. I'm in hospitality myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you
Your post was clear and honest. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Tokyo
