We're Hiring!

Dobler College Consulting has an opportunity for an experienced college advisor to join a growing independent college consulting practice serving high school students and their families. We are a small, two-person practice that works remotely with all of our students. We believe in putting the student at the center of a process that results in a balanced college list and strong applications that showcase each student’s unique values, interests, personality and strengths. Our students do not fit one mold - sometimes, they have taken five AP courses, sometimes none. They are athletes, budding artists and musicians. Sometimes, they have a flawless GPA, and other times, they think they are just “average” and may not have many college options. We take pride in meeting each of our students where they are, and helping them to articulate and reach their unique goals.

Dobler College Consulting was established in October 2011 and has since grown, almost exclusively through word-of-mouth referrals, to serve over 600 students to date. We are seeking a dedicated, creative, and accountable professional who understands the joys and challenges of the college search for both students and families, and who is eager to contribute their expertise to a growing small business. 

Responsibilities:

• • Provide high-quality, personalized, and timely client service to students and their parents through all stages of the college search and application process.
  • Manage relationships with students and parents from start to finish, responding effectively to each student’s unique needs.
  • Manage students’ progress and deadlines throughout the college search and application process utilizing College Planner Pro and other methods as necessary. 
  • Communicate with students and families in a timely manner especially if a student is not making sufficient progress, nor upholding their commitments.
  • Engage in professional development to stay current with information and trends in college admissions.
  • Meet bi-weekly with the DCC team to discuss and evaluate student progress, share resources, and troubleshoot issues. 
  • Contribute to DCC’s social media presence to share relevant information and updates and to establish credibility.

Required Qualifications:

• • Minimum of 3-5 years experience in college counseling, college admissions, enrollment management or related fields
  • Demonstrated knowledge of a broad range of U.S. colleges, their academic programs, and admission policies
  • Strong oral and written communication skills, technological skills, and organizational skills
  • Ability to work independently, exercising discretion and good judgment

Preferred Qualifications:

• • Master's degree in education, counseling, psychology, business, or related field, or certification from an accredited college counseling program
  • Professional experience in small business settings 
  • Active IECA, HECA, and/or NACAC (or regional affiliate) membership
