Rick is the absolute best mentor I've ever had on Mentorcruise. I've been a software engineering/CS mentee for a long time (2+ years) and used several platforms for mentorship: Preply, TakeLessons, etc. in addition to this one, but he is the best engineer I've ever had the pleasure to learn from. He has given great insight and effective feedback as to how I could clear Big Tech Interviews and has been extremely supportive the entire time. Rick truly cares about his mentees and has irrefutable experience and skills to take their career to the next level. Rick helped me secure a SWE I role in a brutal job market and I can't thank him enough. I would even go so far to argue that *not* having Rick as a mentor (or someone like him) would be a huge missed opportunity for your development. Definitely recommend him!

Rick has been an outstanding mentor, offering deep insights into improving my engineering skills, staying competitive in the market, and preparing for big tech interviews. His personalized advice and tailored study plan have given me a clear direction and greater confidence in achieving my goals. As an expert in distributed systems, Rick helps me focus on high-priority areas while cutting through the noise of online information. I highly recommend his mentorship to anyone serious about advancing their career.

Just started work (graduated a few months ago), and needed some early-career and resume pointers. Rick was super helpful, and gave lots of detailed and nuanced answers to my questions. Definitely would recommend the career consultation with him if you are looking for advice on next steps & things to look out for in your career!
