Auckland, Auckland, New Zealand Crimson Education Full time

Want to revolutionize the future of education and do meaningful work that transforms future generations' lives?

EdTech company Crimson Education was founded in 2013 with the idea that through personalized education, we can transform students into the world leaders of tomorrow. Since then, we have rapidly grown a mission-driven team that is dedicated to building the education system for the 22nd century. Our network includes 2,400 tutors and consultants worldwide who work with over 20,000 students.

Our tech platform connects tutors and mentors to high school students aiming to achieve admission and scholarships to top universities in the US, Canada, UK, EU, and beyond.

As a US University Application Essay Mentor, you'll be working with students in an hourly-based compensation role to A) support them in writing their US university application essays, including the Common App Essay, Coalition Essay, and/or all accompanying supplemental and scholarship essays as needed; and B) to prepare them for college interviews if/when these opportunities arise.

Your Responsibilities Within This Role Will Include:

  • Brainstorming and editing the student's personal statements for all applications (to the Common App, to the University of California system, etc.)
  • Brainstorming and editing all written work/supplementary essays that accompany the larger applications enumerated above to ensure that they have completed all components of the college application to the universities assigned to you for each student.
  • Preparing students for interviews.
What We're Looking For:

You are a graduate of a top 30 undergraduate or graduate program in the U.S., a professional educator, or a professional writer. Proficiency in multiple languages and teaching experience, especially with students who have significant ESL (English as a second language) and/or special education needs, is a plus.

You Are An Excellent Communicator:

This job requires the capacity to communicate with students and Crimson employees with clarity, professionalism, and kindness. You will be expected to be responsive to all communications within 24 hours, including on weekends, and you will be compensated for these additional hours.

You Are Organized:

This position requires organization and keeping track of the essay drafts and case details of 10-20 students, though our platform greatly helps with this. Competency in the Google Suite (Docs, Sheets, Slides, Gmail) is strongly encouraged.

You Are Adaptable:

The heart of our program is the extremely hands-on support we provide to our students; the nature of this work requires that you are very comfortable with managing unexpected situations. You must be the type of person who thrives in dynamic environments that call for flexibility and collaborative proactivity.

You Have Excellent Essay Editing Skills:

The most important task of this job is mentoring students in their essay writing. We look for Applications Essay Mentors who have:

  • A strong command of grammar, syntax, narrative, style, and flow.
  • A strong and deep understanding of what admissions committees look for.
  • The capacity to help students reflect and glean insights from experiences.
  • The capacity to ask insightful and helpful questions.
  • The capacity to scaffold and teach a process of reflection, brainstorming, writing, and revising clearly, professionally, and kindly.
Why work for Crimson?

Flexible working environment, you will be empowered to structure how you work.

  • Option to work from our many locations/remotely around the globe (role dependent) with us
  • Limitless development and exposure- our internal promotions/role changes made up 33% of all recruitment last year.
  • Fireside chats, office hours, training, and workshops to help the team continuously level up.
  • Radical candor is a feedback approach we live by.
  • We consistently help students get into their dream schools and top universities in record-breaking numbers.
  • We're a global player with 28 markets (and growing) across the globe
