About Hermann Jacob

Hermann’s academic background combines technology and global business education. He holds a Bachelor’s degree in Information Technology and a Master’s degree in International Business from France. Having personally experienced international education systems and cultural transitions, he understands both the practical and emotional dimensions involved in studying abroad.

Before founding EdGrad Global, Hermann built his professional career with organizations such as Caresoft Global, McKinsey & Company, and HCL Technologies, gaining valuable exposure to corporate environments where analytical thinking, strategic decision-making, and global collaboration are essential.

Beyond his professional career, Hermann has spent several years mentoring students and young professionals, particularly those from underprivileged, rural, and economically constrained backgrounds. Having observed how uncertainty, lack of guidance, and financial pressures can affect educational decisions, he developed a strong commitment to making structured career guidance more accessible and meaningful.

Through EdGrad Global, Hermann aims to combine global exposure, practical insight, and thoughtful mentorship to help students and professionals make informed decisions about their academic journeys and future careers.
