Metric Tracking: Document all touchpoints, outreach metrics, and placement milestones in the CRM.
Targeted Coaching: Deliver impactful 30-minute 1:1 virtual coaching sessions for alumni of a specialized health & sciences university.
Core Topics: Guide alumni across key professional development topics, including LinkedIn optimization, resume writing, targeted networking, interview strategy, personal branding/digital visibility, navigating imposter syndrome, and entrepreneurship.
Experience: 2+ years of direct experience in university employer relations, higher education career services, workforce development, or technical/healthcare recruitment.
Coaching Credentials: Active pursuit or completion of a recognized career coaching certification (e.g., ICF, PARWCC, Lumia, The Academies, Coach U, or equivalent).
Tech Stack: Hands-on proficiency with Handshake, HubSpot (or comparable CRM systems), and Google Workspace (Docs, Sheets, Drive, Meet).
Communication & Sales Mindset: Exceptional written, verbal, and phone/text communication skills with a comfortable, high-energy approach to cold outreach and candidate representation.
High Engagement Rates: Successfully converting cold alumni outreach into active, ongoing 1:1 coaching relationships.
Coaching Excellence: Consistently delivering actionable, high-value career strategy plans that move alumni forward in their job search.
