---What is the structure of monthly mentoring plans?---
My subscription plan consists of three key components: regular live video calls, offline support via email, and written guides. These three components work together to provide a comprehensive and effective approach to career mentorship.
---How do the three mentorship plans differ from each other?---
To provide you with maximum flexibility , I offer three plans: light, standard, and pro. The key difference between these plans is the frequency of our live video calls. Most of my mentees begin with the standard plan. As we progress through your mentorship journey, we'll continue to adjust and refine your plan to ensure that you're receiving the level of support.
---How much time will you spend on reviewing my artifacts and emails?---
Besides our regular sessions, I will also support you offline by reviewing your artifacts. These include resumes, case studies, documents, presentations, etc. I will give you comments and feedback to help you improve them. We'll be applying the UX process to your job search!

Partnering with John has been a game changer for me as I've been trying to get back into the job market after being with the same firm for less than 10 years. John is a fantastic mentor with deep expertise and one of the most compassionate and empathetic human beings you will meet. I struggled with decision paralysis, not knowing what I was doing right or wrong and how to present myself effectively. I needed someone who could guide me, someone with deep expertise in, particularly in big tech, who understood the market's competitiveness and how to navigate it. That's when I turned to John. He quickly understood where I came from and devised a game plan. In just three months, he helped me reach an elevated level that I had been struggling to achieve for nine months. John's guidance was exactly what I needed to make my materials competitive. He provided top-tier detail and thoughtfulness; his resources were a goldmine of education. His response time was quick, and his feedback was strategic, thoughtful, and descriptive. He challenged me to do my best and didn't allow me to settle while also giving me grace where I needed it. He was receptive to my goals and graciously pivoted when I needed to shift priorities. John was my constant and tireless cheerleader, and each session with him was like my private masterclass. I appreciate his grace and mentorship as he guided me through this daunting and lonely experience, especially when you're one in a million in a highly competitive job market that is continuously evolving. Working with John made me realize I had even more capabilities to offer that were now effectively communicated and present. I am proud of our work together, and it's fantastic to see how much progress I made thanks to John's guidance.
