A part-time medical school admissions advisor (remote) works with clients through the medical school preparation and admissions process. A successful advisor will possess strong communication and organizational skills, detailed knowledge about medical schools and trends in medical school admissions processes, and experience working with college students or other individuals through the medical school admission process. Advisors work within a team environment with other advisors and essay coaches.
The position reports to the Health Sciences Team Lead. Location and hours are flexible, but advisors must attend one team meeting every other week and coordinate their meeting schedules with clients. The position will evolve over time as the ideal candidate will take our current practices and expand and enhance them.
