    Job description

    About Empowerly

    Empowerly (Empowerly.com) is an education technology company that personalizes college and career counseling, with a mission to empower students to become the most successful version of themselves. 

    We provide data-driven education technology, start-up and research internship programs, and personalized counseling led by former Admission Officers and experienced College Admissions Counselors. We are a rapidly growing, mission-driven, and venture-backed company. It takes a unified team committed to our core values (collaboration, data driven, and empowerment) to achieve this goal and a fast-moving team committed to serving the needs of our students and families.

    Each student is holistically evaluated through our  Empowerly Score™ — the only predictive technology that can also quantify subjective material. Each student is offered a three-pronged approach to evaluate academics, essays, and extracurricular activities, providing them with a 360-degree view of how to be competitive against other applicants.

    We are a fully remote, global workforce focused on building world-class, college admissions advisory services and programs.

    Minimum Qualifications

    • Essay Refinement and Editing
    • Asynchronously provide written constructive feedback on drafts, focusing on clarity, structure and coherence, grammar, style, and overall impact.
    • All feedback will be provided by a human as the use of AI is strictly prohibited in the essay editing process.
    • Help students enhance storytelling, strengthen their voice, and convey their intended messages through technical writing skills.
    • Have consistent availability throughout our peak season of August through January to provide feedback to students within 24 hours. 
    • Bachelor's degree (Master's preferred) in English, Creative Writing, Journalism, Communications, or a related field.
    • Graduated from a top 50 university in the United States.
    • Background in college admissions preferred, not mandatory.
    • Prior experience in editing, tutoring, or coaching writing, preferably with high school students.
    • Excellent communication, interpersonal, and active listening skills.
    • Ability to provide constructive criticism in a supportive, empathetic, and non-judgmental manner.
    • Patience and empathy for students navigating the college application process.
    • Strong organizational skills and attention to detail.
