Working at Capstone Educational Group:
Here at Capstone, we provide our teachers and admissions consultants with
opportunities for early responsibility, ownership of projects, and leadership.
As an admissions consultant, you can bring your academic background and life
experiences to the challenge, mentoring and guiding students on their future
education and career goals.
Are you looking for a wider international exposure in Greater Asia? We offer
the opportunity for our teachers for mini-rotations between offices during
their work period. Regardless of the track that you choose, you will be in a
position to drive impact and deliver tangible results.
We work with students studying under a variety of different educational
systems, from the American K-12 system, to the British GCSE and ‘A’ Levels, to
the International Baccalaureate, to the local Hong Kong Diploma in Secondary
Education. This exposure to a broad range of curricula provides valuable
insights into how education in Asia mirrors or differs from our consultants’
and instructors’ own backgrounds.
Building from these experiences, many of our consultants and teachers have
chosen to make education a full-time career, both here and at other
organizations, while many others have gone on to pursue graduate studies in
law and education at the most prestigious universities in the US.
