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.
### Ideal Candidate
High Empathy + High Communication + Commercial Mindset + Strong Follow-up + Integrity
We would particularly value candidates who have experience in:
- Education counselling
- Admissions
- Inside sales
- EdTech
- Career counselling
- Student counselling
- High-ticket sales
### Performance KPIs
Your performance will be measured through:
- Qualified counselling conversations
- Centre visits / counselling appointments
- Lead-to-visit conversion
- Visit-to-admission conversion
- Monthly admissions
- Revenue generated
- Follow-up efficiency
- 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 prospect to take on greater responsibility in student counselling, team management and admissions strategy.
### Why Join Aerostar Edge?
- Work in a growing education and career ecosystem.
- Performance-linked earning opportunity.
- Structured counselling and sales training.
- Opportunity to work directly with students and parents.
- Clear career progression.
