Company Description

ApplyAZ is a study abroad platform focused on helping students secure admission to top public universities, with a major emphasis on Italy and other high-value international education pathways. We do not push students toward random private tie-up options. We guide them toward the strongest path based on their actual profile, budget, and long-term goals.

Our model is built around eligibility-first advising, transparent communication, and high-touch support. We work with students who come to us through our platform, paid ads, referrals, organic traffic, and other inbound channels. Our goal is to turn qualified interest into successful enrollments through honest, sharp, and effective consulting.

We are growing and looking for high-performance sales professionals who know how to manage leads properly, build trust fast, and close with confidence.

Job Description

As a Sales Development Representative / Education Consultant at ApplyAZ, you will be responsible for managing and converting inbound leads into enrolled students.
These are not cold leads. These are students who have already shown interest through our ads, website, forms, consultations, or other marketing channels. Your role is to move them through the sales process from first contact to paid conversion.

This is a full-cycle sales role. You will qualify leads, follow up persistently, understand the student’s goals and pain points, book meetings where needed, handle objections, and help close the sale.
You must be highly organized, fast in follow-up, strong on calls, and comfortable working in a metrics-driven environment.



This role is ideal for someone who can balance consultative selling with urgency and execution.
