About Aerostar Edge

Aerostar Edge is building an industry-oriented education ecosystem focused on helping students bridge the gap between **college education, employability and real-world careers **.

We are looking for an **Admission Counsellor ** who can go beyond selling a course — someone who can understand a student's aspirations, guide them toward the right program and confidently convert genuine interest into admission.

### The Role

As an Admission Counsellor, you will manage prospective students from the **first conversation to admission **.

You will speak with students and parents, understand their career goals, handle objections, conduct counselling sessions, create urgency and ensure that the right student chooses the right program.

This is a **target-driven role **, but we are specifically looking for a **consultative counsellor + strong closer **, not a traditional salesperson.

### Key Responsibilities

• Counsel students and parents through calls, WhatsApp and face-to-face meetings.

• Understand the student's academic background, interests, career goals and concerns.

• Recommend the most relevant Aerostar Edge program.

• Explain course structure, industry exposure, career pathways, fees and admission process.

• Handle objections related to **fees, career prospects, parents, competition and course value **.

• Follow up systematically with interested students.

• Convert qualified leads into centre visits and admissions.

• Maintain accurate lead and counselling information in the CRM.

• Achieve weekly and monthly admission targets.

• Coordinate with the telecalling, marketing and academic teams.

• Maintain a strong relationship with students throughout the admission journey.

• Identify opportunities for upselling / cross-selling relevant programs where appropriate.

• Continuously improve counselling and closing skills through training and call reviews.

### What We Are Looking For

We want someone who:

• Is **naturally good at conversations **, not just reading scripts.

• Can listen and ask the right questions.

• Understands student psychology and parental concerns.

• Is confident asking for the admission.

• Can create urgency **without making false promises **.

• Is highly persistent with follow-ups.

• Is comfortable working with targets and incentives.

• Takes ownership of results instead of blaming lead quality.

• Learns quickly from feedback.

• Has strong communication and presentation skills.

• Has a genuine interest in helping students make better career decisions.

• CRM discipline

• Student experience

• Counselling quality

### Compensation

**₹30,000 – ₹40,000/month + performance incentives **

Final compensation will depend on experience and demonstrated ability.

### Career Growth

This role is designed as a **career pathway **, not just an admission-sales position.

**Admission Counsellor → Senior Counsellor → Team Leader → Counselling Manager **

High performers will have the opportunity to take on greater responsibility in **student counselling, team management and admissions strategy **.
