Work Story - Recruiting Students

I went to a local community college and before I graduated with an AA in Business Administration I was offered a position at this same college. I've been recruiting students for this community college for the past two years. I really enjoy it! I work with minority students helping them and their parents parents become familiar with the matriculation process. I'm one of the very few people that actually love their job! Although, sometimes it gets emotionally exhausting because there are very few financial resources for students that I work with (for reasons that I MAY go into detail later).

I supervise two student workers, who have become my right and left arm, figuratively speaking. They are two talented young women (about my age) that love their jobs as well. Our offices are located at a local non-profit's site and that office is my home away from home.

In a sense I can say that I'm the bridge between the community college and the non-profit organization and this has allowed me to learn how a mid-size non-profit and a large community college are managed effectively.

I hope to learn from everyone and I'm looking forward to sharing my experiences with you.
