About us

AdmissionPrep is a high-performance coaching company helping students take control of their post-secondary journey. We combine admissions expertise, academic skill development, and personalized mentorship to give students a competitive edge. We are looking for a Student Success Specialist for a joint role across our Student Success and Growth teams: part of your week is making sure every student who reaches us feels looked after, and part is planning and filming short-form video that educates and inspires students and families.

The details

Part-time employee position, 12 to 25 hours per week, with potential to scale hours during peak seasons.
Pay: $20 to $25 per hour, depending on experience.
Hours: student support is predominantly weekends. Content work follows a weekday cadence: filming, organizing, and uploading early in the week, scripting and planning later in the week.
Location: remote or from our Vancouver office, a co-working space shared with other Vancouver startups in Mount Pleasant (Canada-based applicants only; must be a Canadian Citizen or Permanent Resident).
Placement period: October through the end of your school year (April to May).
Eligibility: you must be a current university student. Our audience is students and parents aiming for top schools, and your on-campus perspective is part of what makes this role work.
Shortlisted candidates complete a short video creation test as part of the process.
