What people are
saying.

We're building our founding community. Here's what career exploration means to the people who need it most.

★★★★★

"I had no idea what I actually wanted to do after school. The idea of talking to a real professional for 30 minutes — not a career counselor, but someone who actually does the job — is exactly what I've been looking for."

★★★★★

"I've been in marketing for 8 years and I'm seriously considering a career change into nursing. Being able to talk to an actual nurse before I commit to going back to school would save me so much uncertainty."

👦
Career Changer
Considering Nursing
★★★★★

"As a high school counselor, I can't personally connect every student with a working professional in every field they're curious about. A platform that does this at scale? That's genuinely valuable."

FAQ

Common questions.

What exactly happens during a session?
You have a live one-on-one video call with a verified professional. You can ask anything — pay, hours, education required, a typical day, the real challenges, and whether they'd choose this career again. It's an honest, unfiltered conversation — not a sales pitch.
Do I need a credit card to create an account?
No. Creating a Lookszy account is completely free. You only pay when you book a session with a mentor ($39–$79 depending on session length).
How are mentors verified?
Every mentor application is reviewed by our team. We do not auto-approve mentors. We check credentials, professional background, and conduct a review before any mentor goes live on the platform.
Can I explore more than one career?
Yes — book sessions with professionals in as many different career fields as you want. Many users explore 2–3 careers before making a decision. Each session is booked and paid for separately.
How does mentor payment work?
Customers pay Lookszy directly. After each completed session, mentors receive their payout. Full payout details, rates and payment schedule are shared during the mentor onboarding process once your application is approved. Apply to learn more.
What's the refund policy?
If you're not satisfied with your session, contact us within 24 hours and we'll make it right — either a full refund or a complimentary session with a different mentor, no questions asked.
When will in-person shadowing be available?
We're launching with virtual sessions only. In-person career experiences involve additional safety, employer-permission, insurance and liability considerations that we're working through carefully. We'll announce in-person availability when it's ready.
