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, Whats App 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.

- 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.

### Growth opportunities

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**.
