2. What does it cost?
The price for most sessions range from $35 - $350 per hour.
3. How does the payment process work?
You pay your Mentor directly. Each Mentor is an independent contractor and is responsible for all services provided to you. They will send you an invoice prior to the session. See Career Change Mentor Program - Reservation Rules and Requirements section Part A, B, and C, regarding cancelled sessions.
4. How are the mentoring sessions held?
You have three (3) possibilities to communicate with your Mentor.
Upon selection by you, your Mentor will contact you by email to arrange an agreeable date/time and method of communication for your session.
5. Are the Career Redo Mentors reputable?
Career Redo takes care in the selection of our Mentors. Each Mentor will have at least three years experience in their career field before they are allowed to join Career Redo. Careful research of their work history and online presence are done before they can join. You can count on each one.
6. What steps do I need to take to schedule a Career Redo Mentor?
All you need to do is the following:
View the page of the Mentor you selected to review her/his background and experience.
7. Will Career Redo need my email, phone number, Zoom ID, or Skype address?
Only your email address is required by Career Redo to be shared with your Mentor to begin the process. It is up to you to determine what information, such as your telephone number, Zoom ID, Skype ID or FaceTime address, that you share with your Mentor.
8. Is it best for me to prepare a list of questions for my mentoring session?
Absolutely, you should prepare questions. There are probably many things you want to cover. The Mentor will have general information that will be passed along to you. But only you can direct the discussion to ensure your time is well spent. Best to be prepared and get a great deal out of your session.
9. Is this mentoring session like life coaching, executive coaching or career coaching?
No way. Career Redo Mentors will convey to you the overview and details of the career field in which you are interested. They have seen people fail and people success. Your time with them should focus on the elements of that field. They are not there to provide life guidance like a career or life coach. Those type coaches don’t really know the details of your desired career. This item in our career faq can be useful.
10. How is it handled if I am late for a session or my Mentor is late?
If you are going to be late, you should let your Mentor know ahead of time. A few minutes tardiness could probably be handled by the Mentor. It is up to the Mentor in that instance. Both parties should use good sense and be accommodating. Any Cancellation Fees for you or a Mentor cancelling a session are set forth on our Career Change Mentor page under Career Change Mentor Program Reservation Rules and Requirements section.
11. Can I continue to use Career Redo to communicate with my Mentor after my initial session or two?

After your initial contact with your Mentor, you can discuss to determine the method with which you are most comfortable. You can download Skype right here.
