About Leverage Edu
Leverage Edu describes itself as an ed-tech company that offers 1:1 virtual mentorship, with 700+ mentors on its platform. It says it is backed by Blume Ventures and DSG consumer partners.
What the internship involves
Most of the work is talking to people who have already shown interest in studying abroad. You call them, learn about their profile and goals, and help shortlist destinations and courses that suit them.
You also support senior counsellors by tracking applications and following up, and you record every student interaction accurately on the CRM. Part of the job is lead nurturing, including re-engaging leads that have gone cold.
Daily team huddles and training sessions are part of the routine.
Who can apply and what is expected
The internship is in-office and full-time, so it only works if you can be present at the office every day for the whole stretch.
- You are currently pursuing graduation or have recently completed it, in any stream.
- You can start between 19th Oct'26 and 23rd Nov'26.
- You are available for 3 months. Elsewhere the listing says 3-4 months, so keep that range in mind.
- You communicate well and are confident on calls and in person.
- You have a genuine interest in overseas education.
- You are comfortable in a target-oriented environment.
A prior internship in EdTech, sales or counselling counts in your favour but is not mandatory. Perks listed are a certificate, a letter of recommendation and an informal dress code.
