The people who arrive stuck.
Students and recent graduates
Applying into tourism and hospitality around Miami with nobody at home who can explain how the hiring actually works.
Job seekers
Strong on paper, stalling at interview, and with no one in Florida who will say plainly what the shortlist turns on.
Career changers
Moving out of aerospace and space, or across to it, with a resume that still reads like the last job rather than the next one.
The fields Florida mentees ask about most.
Matching is cross-border. A mentor in another state, or another country, is normal and often the whole point.

The questions we hear most here.
Asked from Miami, Orlando, Tampa, Jacksonville and the Space Coast, and from everywhere in between.
How do I move out of seasonal work into something with a salary and a ladder?
How do I explain that seasonal hospitality work is real operational and customer experience?
How do I get into tourism and hospitality without knowing anyone already in it?
Should I stay in Florida, move for the job, or work remotely for an employer elsewhere?
What does a strong application look like when the reader has never been to Florida?
Who pays for this.
Employers running Give, so their people mentor outside the business
Colleges and universities buying career access for their students
Charities and foundations widening opportunity for the people they serve
Employers running Redirect for the candidates they turn down

The things people ask first.
Do I have to live in Florida to book?
No. Anyone can book. This page exists because the questions we hear here repeat.
Is it really free?
Free to you. Sessions are funded by our employer, university and public-sector partners.
Will my mentor be local?
Sometimes. We match on the job you are aiming at first, so your mentor may work in Florida or on the other side of the world.
How long until I am matched?
Most people are matched within a few days, then pick a slot in ET.
Will my mentor understand the Florida job market?
Often, yes. Where the better match sits elsewhere, the advice is still set against what you are facing here, including that seasonal hospitality work is real operational and customer experience.
Can I be matched with someone in tourism and hospitality?
Yes. It is one of the areas Florida mentees ask about most, and mentors in it volunteer across the network.
Get unstuck in Florida.
Thirty minutes with someone who has already done it, whether you are in Miami or two hours from the nearest one. Free to you, always.
