Student Advisor Reviews
What is it like working as a Student Advisor?
April 2023
Was expecting to be paid more hence the cost of living is very different to Durban.
Student Advisor in Johannesburg:
Pros: Culture exchange
Cons: All things are far and one needs to have transport to be at all places but with poor salary having to cover a lot of expenses it is really impossible to option own transport at this point
June 2022
Little control to processes.
Student Advisor in Durban:
Pros: Challenging and emotionally rewarding if goal is reached
Cons: Less accountability from employer. Unreasonable dress code
February 2022
Stressful, pleasurable and never ending.
Student Advisor in Covington:
Pros: I get to help people decide their future on a financial base.
Cons: Over load in new schools, not getting the appropriate training to understand the schools and QA unfairly with recent schools trained without a coaching period to let you know what you have done wrong to correct the mistake.
April 2021
Pretty but commutes are horrible.
Student Advisor in London:
Pros: It's great to be able to walk around central easy to get to places and be able to meet up with friends who also work in central plus its really pretty at night time.
Cons: I don't like the commuter lifestyle and the weather it's so depressing and just brings down your whole mood
December 2020
