The people who arrive stuck.
Students and recent graduates
Applying into advanced manufacturing around Manchester 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 New Hampshire who will say plainly what the shortlist turns on.
Career changers
Moving out of healthcare, or across to it, with a resume that still reads like the last job rather than the next one.
The fields New Hampshire mentees ask about most.
Matching is cross-border. A mentor in another state, or another country, is normal and often the whole point.

How do I get into advanced manufacturing without knowing anyone already in it?
Should I stay in New Hampshire, 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 New Hampshire?

The things people ask first.
Do I have to live in New Hampshire 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 New Hampshire 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 New Hampshire job market?
Often, yes. Where the better match sits elsewhere, the advice is still set against what you are facing here, including whether you are targeting New Hampshire employers or Boston ones.
Can I be matched with someone in advanced manufacturing?
Yes. It is one of the areas New Hampshire mentees ask about most, and mentors in it volunteer across the network.
Get unstuck in New Hampshire.
Thirty minutes with someone who has already done it, whether you are in Manchester or two hours from the nearest one. Free to you, always.
