How it works

From curiosity to real-world experience.

Intro is a small team of real people who research your community, contact professionals on your behalf, and coordinate an introduction. Here is exactly what happens after you request one.

  1. Step 1

    Tell us what you're curious about

    Choose any career or profession. You don't need to know exactly what you want to become.

    • “I think I might want to become an electrician.”
    • “My daughter is interested in veterinary medicine.”
    • “I've always wondered what commercial real estate is actually like.”
    • “I don't know what I want to do, but I'm interested in working with machines.”
  2. Step 2

    Request your Intro

    Tell us about yourself, your location, the career you're interested in, and what you'd most like to understand. Then pay the $100 Intro fee.

  3. Step 3

    We find the right professional

    Our team searches your local community for someone actually working in the profession. We personally conduct the outreach and coordinate the introduction.

    • There are real humans behind every step of this process.
  4. Step 4

    Go experience the career

    Depending on the profession and the professional's availability, an Intro may include:

    • Coffee or lunch conversation
    • Workplace visit or office tour
    • Shop visit or job shadow
    • Ride-along where appropriate
    • Observation of real work
    • Introductions to others in the field
  5. Step 5

    Decide what deserves a deeper look

    You leave with something much more valuable than another career profile: real experience.
