Job Description

About Galvanize :

Galvanize Global Education helps ambitious students secure admission to Ivy League and QS Top-500 universities worldwide for their Bachelor’s, Master’s, MBA, and PhD programs. With a student-first approach and proven track record, we support students from the early high school years through to final university admissions, offering profile building, test prep, and admissions counseling.

Role Overview :

Work Location : Chennai / Hybrid

We are seeking a Counselor who combines expertise in both profile building and undergraduate admissions. The role is designed to support students through two key stages of their journey :

  • Grades 9–10 (Profile Building Focus) : Helping students discover academic / career interests and guiding them to build a strong, holistic profile.
  • Grades 11–12 (Admissions Focus) : Guiding students through the college admissions process, from university shortlisting to crafting applications.

Key Responsibilities :

Profile Building (Grades 9–10) :

  • Conduct career exploration and interest mapping sessions.
  • Design multi-year roadmaps covering academics, extracurricular activities, research, internships, volunteering, and summer schools.
  • Recommend tailored activities such as online courses, competitions, projects, and community service.
  • Track student growth and adjust plans as interests evolve.
  • Admissions Counseling (Grades 11–12) :

  • Guide students in university shortlisting based on academic background, interests, and career goals.
  • Assist with application essays, resumes, and recommendation letters.
  • Provide feedback on personal statements and ensure applications highlight the student’s strengths.
  • Support students through the application timeline : testing, deadlines, interview prep, and scholarships.
  • Across Both Stages :

  • Maintain consistent communication with students and parents to ensure progress and alignment.
  • Stay updated on global admissions trends, scholarships, and testing requirements (SAT, ACT, IELTS / TOEFL).
  • Ensure personalized attention (maximum ~50 students per counselor).
  • Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree required; Master’s preferred in Education, Psychology, or related fields.
  • Prior experience as a school counselor, career coach, or admissions advisor strongly preferred.
  • Understanding of international curricula (IB, A-Levels, AP, CBSE, etc.) and study-abroad pathways.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.
  • Study abroad experience (preferred).
  • Passion for mentoring teenagers and shaping their academic journeys.
  • Benefits

  • Opportunity to impact students’ futures by guiding them from early interest exploration to global admissions success.
  • Student-first, collaborative, growth-oriented work environment.
  • Competitive compensation with professional development opportunities.
