About the Role

Academic Counsellor - Healthcare Careers | Hyderabad

Academically Global | Hyderabad/Hybrid, India | Full-Time

You Won't Be Selling a Course. You'll Be the Reason Someone Actually Makes the Leap.

Picture this: a pharmacist in Nagpur has spent three years wondering if she's capable of clearing OPRA and building a life in Sydney. She's read forty blog posts, watched a hundred YouTube videos, and still hasn't pressed "enroll" on anything, because nobody's ever actually talked her through it like a real person who gets it.

That call is going to be yours.

Every day, you'll pick up the phone to doctors, pharmacists, dentists, and nurses standing at exactly that fork in the road and you'll be the person who turns "I've been thinking about this for two years" into "I start Monday." Not by pushing. By actually knowing the pathways (AMC, USMLE, UKMLA, OPRA, Gulf licensing, MSL, pharmacovigilance) well enough to tell someone honestly which one fits their life and then walking them there.

Here's the Part Most Ads Won't Tell You

Most counselling roles in Hyderabad have you selling the same commoditized course to anyone who picks up the phone. This one doesn't work that way, because the "product" isn't a course, it's a career pivot for someone who already has a medical degree and is deciding whether to bet on a bigger life. That's a fundamentally different conversation, and it's why we built this role around counselling frameworks, not call scripts.

What Your Day Actually Looks Like

  • ~100 conversations a day, ~2 hours of real talk-time, not dialing into silence, actual conversations with people who already have skin in the game (they're doctors and pharmacists, not cold leads off a scraped list)

  • Diagnose, don't pitch - figure out whether AMC or USMLE fits their goals, whether Pharmacovigilance or Medical Writing suits their strengths, before you ever mention enrollment

  • Own your pipeline end-to-end in CRM - no passing leads to someone else to close what you started

  • Watch someone go from "maybe someday" to actually building the career they'll tell their kids about

Who Thrives Here

  • 0–5 years in EdTech admissions, inside sales, or counselling freshers genuinely welcome, we'll train you on the pathways

  • You'd rather earn trust over three calls than force a close on the first one

  • Comfortable with structure (CRM, follow-up cadences) but not robotic about it

  • Bachelor's degree, any discipline, we care more about how you listen than what you studied

What You Get Back

  • Competitive fixed salary + performance incentives that actually reward quality enrolments, not just call volume

  • Direct mentorship from Dr. Akram Ahmad - 1M+ followers, built this from zero, still personally invested in how his team grows

  • A real path to Senior Counsellor / Team Lead, not a ceiling dressed up as a "growth opportunity"

  • A Hyderabad office that's part of something genuinely global, head office in Sydney, sister offices in Dehradun and Delhi

The Honest Pitch

Most jobs let you hit a target. This one lets you watch a pharmacist you talked to on a random Tuesday afternoon post "I got my Australian visa" eight months later and know you're the reason she believed she could.

Apply if that sounds like work worth doing, not just a number worth hitting.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about the process

Jobslly curates specialized corporate healthcare listings tailored for medical graduates seeking a career pivot. Instead of sifting through general medical job boards, doctors can use our platform to directly access high-paying non-clinical opportunities in Pharmacovigilance, Medical Writing, and Clinical Trial Management with top pharmaceutical companies and CROs. Most MBBS/BDS grads don't realise — clinical background is already enough to get into pharma. The problem is nobody explains this clearly. On Jobslly each listing shows salary range, fresher eligibility, and certifications worth getting before applying. Pharmacovigilance roles for example keep asking for RQAP-GCP. All this is on the listing itself, no separate research needed.
Yes. Jobslly features dedicated filtering for remote and hybrid healthcare roles, which are highly sought after by medical professionals looking for better work-life balance. Doctors can easily track and apply for verified work from home positions, such as Telehealth Consultants, Medical Chart Reviewers, and Drug Safety Associates, directly through the platform Real problem with remote medical jobs — half are fake, half are badly described. You join and realise it's a night shift for a US team nobody mentioned. Jobslly listings show shift timings, contract type, whether company gives equipment or WFH allowance. All upfront before you apply.
Generic job portals often bury specialized clinical roles under thousands of unrelated listings. Jobslly is purpose-built exclusively for the healthcare and health-tech sectors. We provide doctors with targeted career alerts for niche specialties, direct application routes to premium employers in major hubs like Mumbai and Bangalore, and real-time insights into medical salary benchmarks. Salary benchmark is something doctors switching careers genuinely need. No idea what number to quote, quote low, stuck with it forever. Jobslly shows pay ranges — by role, city, experience level. Career alerts are filtered by specialty and location so inbox isn't flooded with irrelevant stuff daily.
To protect medical professionals from recruitment fraud and unverified agencies, Jobslly operates a strictly vetted ecosystem. We exclusively partner with verified employers, prioritizing NABH-accredited hospitals, established health-tech innovators, and recognized multinational pharma brands so you can apply with complete confidence. Fake agencies, ghost listings, upfront fee scams — very common in medical recruitment, especially pharma and international roles. Jobslly doesn't allow unregistered agents on platform at all. Each listing shows actual audit date, not just an old generic verified badge. Suspicious listing — report button is there, compliance checks within 24 hours.
Yes. Backed by the Academically Global network, Jobslly goes beyond domestic job listings by providing access to structured International Placement Programs. We connect ambitious doctors, nurses, and clinical staff with credible, high-paying healthcare contracts in global markets like the UK, Australia, and the UAE, while outlining the necessary credentialing steps. UK needs PLAB, Australia needs AMC, UAE needs DHA or HAAD depending on emirate. Most doctors know this but the full picture — exam pattern, timeline, cost, official links — is scattered everywhere. Jobslly puts the credentialing roadmap directly on each international listing. Academically Global counsellors also available — people who've actually placed Indian doctors in these countries, know exactly where candidates get stuck.
Forget the assumption that only senior doctors make the big money. That's outdated. Right now, some of the best packages in Indian healthcare are going to people you wouldn't expect — Senior Medical Writers, Clinical Data Managers, Pharmacovigilance Specialists working with global pharma firms or CROs. These aren't rare unicorn jobs. They exist, they hire regularly, and the salaries are negotiable in ways hospital jobs rarely are. Most candidates just don't know to look for them.
Not all cities are equal on this front, and applying blindly wastes time. Bangalore is where health-tech and clinical research hiring is concentrated. Hyderabad is pharma country – manufacturing, QC, formulation, R&D. Mumbai and Navi Mumbai handle specialized hospital care, advanced nursing roles, and pharmacovigilance admin, medical writing, policy work all coexist there without one dominating the other. If you're open to relocating, knowing this upfront changes which jobs you even bother applying for.
Both. That's the honest answer. Legitimate remote roles in healthcare have existed long before anyone started calling things "hybrid." Medical Coders, Pharmacovigilance Associates, Telehealth Coordinators, Freelance Medical Writers — these positions have been hiring remotely for years through companies that are very much real. The fake ones almost always have one thing in common: they ask for money. Registration fees, document processing charges, security deposits — whatever the label, it's a scam. No actual employer takes money from a candidate before they join. That rule holds without exception.
EMR platforms, digital documentation tools, data tracking systems, AI-assisted reporting software. These aren’t “nice to have” anymore. They’re baseline. Clinical Knowledge is still the foundation but walking into an interview unable to navigate the systems the team uses daily is a problem. Candidates who are already familiar with these tools don’t need to be trained from scratch, and that matters when hiring managers are comparing two otherwise similar profiles.
Short answer: yes, and it's happening constantly. Long answer: it depends on what you want. If structured hours, no emergency calls, and a salary that doesn't plateau after three years sound appealing — corporate healthcare is worth your attention. Medical Writing, Drug Safety Review, Insurance Auditing, Health-tech Program Management — these roles specifically want people who understand clinical realities. A nursing degree or MBBS isn't a handicap here. It's often the reason you get the interview.
