We connect people with the experts, programs, and communities they need to land the job, get into the school, or upskill for a world being rewritten by AI. We help businesses become AI-native through training, hiring, and infrastructure. Since our founding in 2021, we've helped tens of thousands of people reach their most ambitious goals and raised $19M from world-class investors. Ambition is sacred to us, and we've built a product that takes that seriously.
We're seeking an experienced fellowship & postdocs programs mentor to work with applicants pursuing competitive fellowships, grants, and postdoctoral positions. This role includes helping clients with program selection and application strategy, identifying research opportunities and research funding, and refining research proposals and research publications. Mentors also guide clients through the full application, including personal statement, statement of purpose, fellowship essays, secondary essays, letters of recommendation, and resume review, as well as interview prep and interviews, networking strategy, financial aid & scholarships, grant writing, and waitlist strategy. Ideal candidates have hands-on experience navigating fellowship, grant, or postdoc application processes, prior coaching or mentoring experience, and a clear, structured approach to helping clients present their strongest candidacy. Mentors set their own hours and rates, host sessions virtually, and partner with our team to deliver a high-quality, supportive experience for every client.
