About this session

Sometimes the fastest way to grow is to get thoughtful feedback on the work you are already doing. This MentorCruise session is designed to help you review a real piece of work with someone experienced in your field, whether that is a project, presentation, product decision, design, strategy, document, or deliverable. It is a chance to get a more expert perspective on what is working, what is not, and how to improve it.

You’ll work with an experienced mentor to break down your work, understand where it is strong, and identify the biggest opportunities to level it up. Together, you can discuss execution, clarity, quality, decision-making, and how the work might be perceived by teammates, managers, clients, or stakeholders. The goal is to leave with sharper feedback, better instincts, and practical next steps you can apply right away.

Your mentor

As a Staff Engineer, I do a lot of code review! We can go over a personal project and discuss code quality, code patterns, architecture, or anything that sticks out as an area that needs attention. By the end of our time, you'll have actionable steps that you can take to improve your code or approach to coding.

I have spoken with Aaron, and we have set up a Career Strategy session. He has helped by sharing his knowledge and perspective, which best fits my situation. I have gained knowledge about when it is worthwhile to attend university. He also shared resources and a high-level plan for the next steps to find a new job opportunity. We have run out of time, as I had many questions, but Aaron was kind and answered all of them. Recommend him as an experienced developer who has deep knowledge of the industry and is open to sharing it”

Aaron did a great job with assessing my situation and planning an approach. He is very resourceful and intelligent. He has great amount experience of interviewing candidates. He aims teaching you to be independent rather than giving you a formula. He is also very quick to respond to my emails and messages. Now, I have valuable knowledge about tackling interviews, and got significant traction in my job searching. I highly recommend his mentorship.”
