jobtourist.net in a Nutshell

jobtourist.net is a platform that connects between enthusiasts who want to try out and learn about a profession and professionals who want to share their knowledge and experience with others. We call these enthusiasts Jobtourists and the professionals are Jobcoaches. Jobcoaches offer interested Jobtourists an authentic one-on-one tour of their profession, and jobtourist.net is where they all meet!

After our launch in Switzerland in October 2010 jobtourist.net is delighted about the first Jobtour bookings as well as the significant media attention we have received. We are now preparing to launch in other countries and are currently seeking English speaking Jobcoaches all over the world.
