The people who arrive stuck.
Students and recent graduates
Applying into finance and investment and technology and startups around Miami against people who already had someone make the call for them.
Job seekers who keep reaching the last round
Strong applications, no useful feedback, and no one in Miami who can say what the shortlist actually turns on.
People early in a job here
First or second role in Miami, working hard, with nobody explaining how progression or pay is decided.
Career changers
Moving out of international trade or into it, with a CV that still reads like the last job rather than the next one.

The things people ask first.
Do I have to live in Miami to book?
No. Matching is cross-border, so a mentor is chosen for the job they do rather than the city they sit in.
Is it really free?
Free to you. Sessions are funded by our employer, university and public-sector partners.
How soon can I get a session?
Sign up, tell us what you are stuck on, and pick a slot in ET once you are matched.
Can I be matched with someone in finance and investment?
Yes. Finance and investment is one of the areas Miami mentees ask about most, and mentors in it volunteer across the network.
Will my mentor understand the Miami job market?
Often, yes. Where the better match sits elsewhere, you still get someone who does the job you are aiming at, and the advice is set against what you are facing in Miami.
Get unstuck from Miami.
Thirty minutes with someone who has already done it. Free to you, wherever you are sitting.
