Edoofa started with a modest initiative and a bold vision—to make quality education accessible, career-focused, and outcome-driven. Today, it stands as India’s #1 work-study program, empowering over 5,000 students from Africa and South Asia to not just earn a degree but to launch successful careers. We go beyond education, providing a clear, self-financed pathway to employment—because we believe the true measure of education is employability. Unlike the typical " raise fast, exit fast" startups, Edoofa is bootstrapped, profitable, and built for long-term success. We focus on sustainable growth, strong cash flows, and meaningful careers—not just short-term wins. We are a bunch of high-intent, aspirational people who have stayed the course, been in the education industry for the long haul to create an impact in the lives of so many. We have always kept our focus on identifying opportunities for value creation for our customers, our partners and people who have been a part of our mission to transform education. This video is for anyone who shares a similar belief of finding a sense of purpose in building a solid business, creating wealth, and joining a mission to create an impact via transforming lives. The objective of the role: At Edoofa, our counselors are the first point of contact for our customers- our international students. Their primary goal is to guide the students through the process and understand their aspirations and goals in life to help them make the right career decisions. The counsellors are responsible for the end-to-end process of engaging with a student, helping them choose the right course, understanding their academic and financial aspirations, and ensuring successful enrolment and admission into the Edoofa program if they are the right fit. The counsellors also need to notice that this is a direct revenue-generating role and hence need to analyse their conversations and process through a business lens from time to time in order to generate productivity in their work, earn revenue and still create value by being a helping hand to these students. Roles & Responsibilities: Conduct in-depth research and analysis to identify and prospect potential students. Take full ownership of the student enrollment journey—from the first point of contact to successful enrollment. Counsel prospective students with empathy and clarity, maintain consistent follow-ups, and build a strong pipeline through effective relationship management and communication. Continuously optimize the enrollment process by evaluating performance metrics and identifying areas for improvement to drive successful closures. Collaborate closely with the Admissions and Student Services teams to ensure a seamless and efficient post-enrollment experience for students.

Profile: Academic Consultant ( Sales) Location: On site- Gurgaon | Full-time About the role: At Edoofa, sales isn’t about pushing forms — it’s about changing lives .

The consultants are responsible for the end-to-end process of engaging with a student, helping them choose the right course, understanding their academic and financial aspirations, and ensuring successful enrolment and admission into the Edoofa program if they are the right fit. This is not a service desk role — it’s a high-velocity, revenue-driving opportunity where your hustle, conversations, and ownership directly convert into impact (and into your earnings). If you love talking to people, thrive in competitive environments, and get a kick out of seeing both students and your bank account win , this role is built for you. What will you do: ● Own the complete student enrollment journey — from first call to final enrollment ● Prospect smartly: research, identify, and reach out to high-potential students. ● Have daily high-energy conversations that blend empathy with persuasion. ● Maintain relentless follow-ups and pipeline discipline. ● Collaborate with Admissions and Student Services teams to ensure smooth handovers. ● Track metrics, sharpen your sales game, and close deals with precision. Why This Role is Exciting ● Direct impact = direct earnings . Your hustle moves the revenue needle, and that means higher incentives. ● Not your average sales job. You’re working with ambitious African youth whose families are betting on their future — your conversations are life-changing. ● Startup hustle. No rigid scripts, no red tape — speed, ownership, and creativity are valued here. ● Growth accelerator. Many of our top leaders started as counselors — this is the fastest route into leadership. Who Thrives Here ● Natural hustlers who love conversations and can convince with clarity. ● People with a competitive streak who like to see their numbers grow every month. ● High-energy communicators who know how to listen, empathize, and close. ● Ambitious growth seekers who want to earn big, learn fast, and grow into a managerial or business career. We aren’t hiring employees yet; we are looking for builders who will take ownership of their “dukaans” within Edoofa, learning by doing, hustling with intent, and creating real impact. If you want more than a job —if you want to build, hustle, and grow with purpose — Edoofa is your stage.
