The Role


  • Mentor high-achieving students as they navigate every stage of the college application journey.

  • Provide expert guidance on selecting schools, crafting compelling essays, and building standout applications.

  • Collaborate with a diverse, international team dedicated to ethical, student-centered counseling.


Why Join Us

  • Experience life in a vibrant, major Chinese city with a supportive team and rich cultural immersion.


Who We’re Looking For


A strong academic foundation — Bachelor’s degree required, advanced degree preferred.

At least 2 years of relevant experience in education, college counseling, or a related field.
