FAQs

Everything you need to know about NxtGEN

01

Do I need experience to join?

Nope — we welcome all levels. If you are committed, we’ll help you level up fast. If you've got no experience, you’ll join at Level 1, and get trained and mentored on internal projects to build your skills. Strong applicants with experience can skip ahead and start at level 2, jumping straight into client work (and pay 💸).

02

This sounds great, but how do I manage my academics, social life, and NxtGen?

During term time, you will have the option to only work up to 10 hours a week, and everything’s remote and flexible. Plus, your NxtGen consultant mentors you on time management and productivity, so you can keep your GPA up and still level up your career.

03

Is it remote?

100%. Just bring the energy. As you level up to Level 3 & 4 you’ll also get the chance to join on-site startup pitches, consultations, and events for that real-world edge.

04

Is it paid?

Yep, once you hit Level 2 after just 40-hours, the money starts rolling in 💸. You’ll get paid hourly, and the higher you level up, the more you earn. Plus, with every level comes bigger perks: more swag, overtime opportunities, and next-level mentoring to help you grow faster and go further.

05

What tracks can I join — and what kind of jobs do NxtGen students get?

At NxtGen, you'll gain experience in one or more of our core tracks:

  • Social Media Marketing
  • Branding and Design
  • Sales & CRM Management
  • Web Development
  • AI & Tech Integration
  • Business Operations & Project Management
  • Business Consultancy & Strategy

With your NxtGen Accreditation and hands-on portfolio, you can unlock roles like:

  • Marketing Specialist / Content Creator
  • Sales Development Rep (SDR)
  • Junior Product Manager / Software Engineer
  • Strategy Analyst / Operations Associate
  • Startup Consultant / Business Coach
  • Or continue on with us as a NxtGen Consultant leading student teams
06

Can I choose my projects?

Once you reach Level 3, you can start requesting the roles, teams, and startups you're most excited about. We match you based on your skills, interests, and growth goals, so you’re always working on what lights you up.

07

What happens when I graduate?

You don’t just walk away with experience — you graduate with a NxtGen Accreditation, a portfolio of real client work, and a proven track record. Top performers get access to:

  • Exclusive job offers with startups and partners
  • The chance to join the NxtGen Consultancy Graduate Program and become a paid consultant
  • The opportunity to apply for the NxtGen Alum Incubator if you’re ready to launch your own business
