Disclaimer: “72 Seasons” is the title of a Metallica record – I am using this title it for my free mentorship program for persons from disadvantaged backgrounds so Lars, do not sue bitte, bitte, bitte.
So, this year I have space for 4 persons. Similar rules like last year: contact me, write me why you want a part of this and what do you want to learn. Those accepted, will gain access to my chat server – which in addition to 72 seasons members, hosts some really, really cool folks. The expansion of scope is for a variety of reasons: it is the second time I am doing this, I learned a lot about folk’s motivations last time as well as effective ways to convey information. By actively mentoring, I also learned a few things myself.
I am not asking for a single dime. I work and I make enough and I would rather die than become one of them snake-oil merchants who will sell you a course and promise a Big-Tech job from the get-go. What am I asking is commitment – do not apply unless you can maintain a comfortable pace working through a variety of exercises. Also, keep in mind you need to come from a disadvantaged background – at the very least, similar to the one I grew up so if you are looking for a quick way to expand your Trust Fund via the knowledge shared or you need someone to solve your technical problems for you, save everyone some time and look elsewhere.
Those who are reading and are not applicable, a share in your social media could go a long, long way towards reaching the right folks.
