North America

The cost of getting in keeps rising.

Degrees cost more than ever and the first job is harder to reach than ever. In the US and Canada, mentorhero gives students, graduates and career changers a free half hour with somebody who already does the job they want.

The problem here

Three things that keep North American careers closed.

Debt before the first payslip

Graduates carrying tuition debt cannot afford a wrong first move, yet they are choosing with almost no information.

Referral-driven hiring

A large share of roles are filled through referrals. No network, no referral, no interview.

Rejection with no feedback

Candidates are turned down at volume and told nothing, so the same gap repeats at the next application.

Who we work with here

Four kinds of partner.

  • Employers running Give across their workforce

  • Employers running Redirect for candidates they turn down

  • Colleges and universities buying career access for every student

  • Non-profits and workforce programmes widening opportunity

Questions

The things people ask first.

Do you cover Canada as well as the US?

Yes. Both sit inside the same network and matching runs across borders.

Can our mentors take sessions during the working day?

Yes, and most do. 30 minutes is deliberately short enough to fit between meetings.

Is Redirect worth it if we reject thousands of candidates?

That is exactly when it counts. One line in the rejection email turns a dead end into a real conversation.

Turn rejection into a route forward.

Run Give, Grow or Redirect across your workforce, or sign up as a mentor yourself.
