Definitely use the two week free trial to see if the program is for you. They don’t hold back great advice or instructions during the trial. Even if you decide not to move forward, you still get valuable information. My mentors and coaches really helped. I loved being able to set appointments with them on demand. My career coach was amazing. She gave me so much Greta advice on how to interview, write cover letters, and tailor my resume to each job. My industry mentor was equally as great. He really helped me know what subjects I needed to brush up on, what would likely be asked in an interview, and how to create my personal brand. They do have an income share agreement with different percentages based on the tier of support you choose. You pay nothing up front and only start paying once you get a job. It is a bit expensive and you do have to put in the work. I would definitely recommend Pathrise if you have the will, commitment, and can afford it.

The training and all the mentors are fantastic. Extremely helpful for setting up interviews and how to handle most all the processes of the new job hunt process. It is very beneficial to be able to speak with the industry mentors to get great insight in your particular field. My only complaint is the pricing. The amount of income share is a bit higher than I believe is worth, 2-3 hours a week of involvement costs almost $20,000

I feel like this was supposed to be a faster process but. I love how involved my mentor is. Everything has been so user friendly and everyone is super helpful.

What made my experience great with Pathrise is that they cover ALL aspects of job placements. They have mindset coaching, mentors for practice interviews, networking, sourced jobs each week, a personal coach to help you with a personalized game plans and weekly workshops. They even offer therapy! Overall a great experience and they do not lack anything.

People are really nice. You can find an expert on anything and arrange a meeting.

I ended up getting a job in my field after working with Pathrise. The contract you sign provides a safety net for you. You get a trial period where you test out the program and have the option to back out if you feel it isn’t right for you. You are under no obligation to accept or turn down job offers. If you get a job that doesn’t pay 40k or more they release you from the program at no cost to you. And if you go a full year without getting a job or a job that pays more than 40k they release you again at no cost to you. The mentors are really good at negotiating salary and can help you basically get an increase in your offered salary so big that it covers the cost of the program itself. Many of the mentors I worked with work at Google, Amazon, Uber, Nestlé, etc. And they were pretty much all in positions of seniority. Hiring managers, Senior Engineers, Lead Developers, etc. And a lot of the mentors are recruiters for these companies as well. They show you exactly what managers, and recruiters are looking for in a candidate. It’s like a cheat code to your job search. The mentors really have your best interest in mind which is reassuring. There is a wide variety of mentors to meet with. Anything you would want or need to know about the job your going for they can provide you with. I’ll add a few caveats / bullet points to my experience below. - You get out of it what you put into it - You still have to work hard to find a job for yourself. Don’t expect to sign up and then have Pathrise magically show up with a dream job offer the next week. They provide you with the right tools and training on how to use those tools. But it is still on you to actually go out and put the work in - Don’t have unrealistic expectations - They provide you with everything you’ll need to know for future endeavors - Pricey - Some promises under their highest tier option could be followed through with much better.

I enjoy the one on one session with Pathrise Industry mentors and also the fact that the program is sensitive to mental health issues that fellows may face in their journey. Depending on the job salary, the monthly payments to Pathrise could be pricey! So I think maybe the monthly credits for booking sessions can increase from the current 4. Finally, the main issue I had was the availability of jobscan because it is such an important tool in the pathrise application flow, I think the jobscan or a similar ATS service should be part of the perks provided. I have been using the JobAlytics extension however it is honestly below par.

TLDR: If you don’t have internships under your belt or relevant work experience in the corporate world, this might not be the best place for you. I joined the Pathrise program in October, ended up leaving 4 months later after experiencing difficulty landed a job. I don’t come from a traditional background in terms of work experience (IE: straight out of college launched a series of small businesses, learned as I built, pivoted directions multiple times). They pair you with a career mentor and you can pick & choose your industry mentors. Your career mentor helps with your resumes. Your industry mentors help you pinpoint strong and weak points. Industry mentors also help you practice for interviews, case studies, and overall industry knowledge. You probably want to join Pathrise from the countless “UGC” tiktok ads they’ve been putting out, and their 96% success rate. Well, if you have past internships and/or relevant work experience in the roles you’re looking to get into you might have some luck. Overall, the service is great, the mentors definitely care about you. Ultimately, it is your decision whether or not to join. However, in my experience I believe this is best suited for someone who’s already gone beyond the first stage of going down the corporate path. I hope this helps someone, Happy Hunting.
