How do I get a senior level academic and career advisor job?
Employers hiring at the senior level look for advisors who have led initiatives beyond individual caseloads, such as redesigning advising models, managing staff, or driving measurable student outcomes. Demonstrating ownership of a program or process, rather than participation in one, is what separates strong candidates at this stage. Credentials like a master's degree in counseling, higher education, or a related field strengthen your candidacy further.
