  • Maintain Accurate Records: Review financial aid information and keep student files complete, organized, and confidential.
  • Support Compliance: Apply financial aid regulations and institutional policies in daily advising and documentation.
  • Coordinate Across Teams: Partner with admissions and student services to address student needs and support enrollment.
  • Support Campus Activities: Present financial aid information at orientations and participate in school events.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
