Success Story: How Paviter Went from MBA Student to Remote SEO Executive Role in the UK

Every international student in the UK arrives with big dreams and many uncertainties — Paviter was no different. She came to pursue an MBA in Global Management, unsure of her career path. What sets her apart is her courage to ask the right questions, take action, and trust the process.

Uncertainty and Discovery: The Beginning of Paviter’s Journey

When Paviter first reached out to us, she was midway through her MBA and unsure of her next steps. Project management seemed like the default, but she felt it wasn’t the right fit.

One day, she saw one of our Instagram reels about digital marketing careers for international students. It sparked her interest, and she booked a one-on-one session.

In that first chat, she admitted she had no idea what SEO or PPC meant — but was eager to learn.

Why She Chose SEO — and Her Learning Journey

When Paviter first heard about SEO, it was completely new to her — but something about it clicked. It struck the right balance between creativity and technical skills, and most importantly, it aligned with her long-term goal of building a sustainable career in the UK.

She committed herself fully to the learning process, spending 4 to 5 months mastering core concepts like on-page SEO, technical audits, keyword research, and industry tools like Google Search Console and Screaming Frog. Despite coming from a customer service background, she picked up the technical side with remarkable dedication — and that made all the difference.

The Reality of Job Hunting as an International Student

After finishing the program in October, Paviter started applying for SEO roles and quickly learned that skills alone aren’t enough — you need strategy, a strong CV, and resilience.

We revised her CV multiple times and practiced interview tasks, but she still faced setbacks, often reaching final rounds without offers.

In one key conversation, she asked, “Why am I not getting through?” That honest talk helped identify gaps and motivated her to push harder. She took it seriously — and that’s why she succeeded.

Landing the Right Opportunity

By March, Paviter landed a remote SEO role with a global agency open to future visa sponsorship. Rejections along the way were just redirections — by the time this offer came, she was truly ready.

“We both agreed — this was the right offer, at the right time”

A Message to Other International Students

Paviter’s journey from a confused MBA student to an SEO Executive took 9 months of consistent effort — learning, failing, and improving. With the right guidance and mindset, even without experience, building a career in the UK is possible — one step at a time.
