As a Postgraduate Counseling Associate, you will lead a team of counselors, collaborate with subject experts and editors, and provide strategic guidance to help clients stand out in a highly competitive global admissions landscape.

This is an ideal opportunity for a dynamic, empathetic, and strategically minded professional who thrives on helping motivated candidates achieve their academic and career ambitions. Your strong understanding of program-specific requirements for Master's, PhD, MBA, and other postgraduate degrees will enable you to design and oversee structured mentorship schedules with external mentors while ensuring students receive consistent support.

• Conducting one-on-one profile evaluations, advising on academics, extracurriculars, summer schools, internships, and overall profile building.
• Coaching students through standardized test preparation (SAT/ACT, APs, IELTS/TOEFL, etc.) and guiding them on subject or curriculum equivalencies (IB, A-Levels, CBSE, ISC, etc.).
• Assisting in the drafting, reviewing, and refining of application essays, personal statements, activity lists, résumés, and recommendation letters.
• Conducting mock interviews aligned with admissions standards of universities in the U.S., U.K., and Canada.
• Coordinating weekly student-mentor sessions via Zoom/Google Meet and maintaining an updated database of student progress.
• Preparing detailed progress notes, ensuring applications stay on track with internal and university deadlines.
• Researching relevant undergraduate scholarships, financial aid, and merit-based opportunities, and assisting students with applications (CSS Profile, FAFSA, UCAS bursaries, etc.).
• Helping students and families evaluate admission offers by clarifying financial implications, career outcomes, and long-term pathways.
• Collaborating with internal faculty, mentors, and external partners to provide holistic and timely support.

Requirements & Qualifications:
