Do I have to live in Truro 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 GMT/BST once you are matched.
Can I be matched with someone in health and nhs careers?
Yes. Health and NHS careers is one of the areas Truro mentees ask about most, and mentors in it volunteer across the network.
Will my mentor understand the Truro 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 Truro.
