Our Story
Career Edit is a UK-based education consultancy supporting international students and early-career professionals through study abroad, relocation and accommodation support, and post-study career development. We provide tailored study-abroad guidance, including university pathway advice and application support. Official university admissions and application submissions are facilitated through Yes Education, our principal admissions agency.
To support students beyond admission, Career Edit offers the Student Buddy Programme, providing relocation guidance and accommodation assistance to help international students settle smoothly into life and study in the UK.
Since 2023, Career Edit has expanded its services to support graduates and junior professionals in the UK through bespoke one-to-one career development programmes focused on UK employability. Our training emphasises practical, market-relevant skills in SaaS, AI development, and digital roles, aligned with current UK employer demand. Our community includes graduates from leading UK universities such as UCL, Imperial College London, Warwick, and Oxford Brookes, with participants joining from across Asia.
Our mission is to help individuals unlock opportunities, build confidence, and build meaningful careers, in the UK and beyond.
STUDENT BUDDY
Moving to a new country for your studies is exciting but can be overwhelming. Our Student Buddy service helps make your transition smooth and stress-free by guiding you through essential research and practical steps. We support you in finding safe and affordable housing, navigating online viewings, and managing landlord or guarantor requirements. We also provide insights into safe neighbourhoods, convenient commuting options, nearby amenities like supermarkets and hospitals, and other personalised preferences, so you can settle in confidently and focus on your studies.
CAREER EDIT
The UK job market can be competitive and sometimes slow-moving, especially if you’re seeking your first professional role. Career Edit, launched in 2023, is one of the UK’s most unique career development programmes for international graduates and professionals. It offers a personalised, hands-on, and practical approach that goes far beyond traditional recruitment or outplacement services. We are committed to treating all candidates equally, whether they have UK work experience or not. Many participants without prior UK experience have successfully secured roles within 1.5 – 3 months of joining the programme.

Testimonials
“I was introduced to Felicia through a friend who had joined her Career Edit programme, and I found her support incredibly helpful. The programme is unique and especially valuable for international students seeking new job opportunities in the UK. It helped me build practical, day-to-day workplace skills and gave me much more confidence when preparing for interviews and applying for my next role.”
Caroline

“Before joining, I had many interviews but struggled to progress beyond the early stages. Within one month of joining the programme, I secured nine interviews, two of which progressed to the final stage. After completing the programme within three months, I learned how to structure my answers and felt much more confident explaining my work experience.”
