Selling education to prospects that procrastinate.
National Admission Advisor (Current Employee), Downers Grove, IL –
Pros: lots of food
Cons: limited on lead buys.
Challenging part is to keep student engaged all the way to graduation, other than that, it's sales.

Fast Paced Sales Enviroment
Admissions Advisor (Former Employee), Schaumburg, IL –
CEC is not a bad company to work for. My ratings are based on being an Admissions Advisor which is possibly the toughest general position in the company simply because its pressure sales. It works for some people... They do compensate well for those who are able to meet their sales ( enrollments and starts) well enough to stay employed. You need thick – more...  skin and a strong work ethic to make it past 8 months. If you do and its the type of job for you there really is no better company. They have a positive attitude toward higher education and really do try to deliever a quality education to people that cant attend a ground school. – less

Changing Lives Everyday Through Education
National Admissions Advisor Specialist (Current Employee), Schaumburg, IL –
Pros: promoting career focused programs for students, great communication with management and team
Cons: growth potential limited, very challenging job, scheduled changes yearly through tour bid, team cohesiveness not solid
Here at CTU, I help assist prospective students with the programs the university offer by interviewing students to find their goals through the enrollment process. I create appointments, complete interviews, and help in the final step of admissions by enrolling prospective students. I learned that challenges are amongst all of us every day. In order – more...  to relate and build trust with others is critical to long term relationships and personal changes. The management is great with the motivation for team meetings and competitiveness to achieve monthly budgets and starts for enrollments. The co-workers all have excellent qualities that universally created a well-rounded team for support and advice. The most challenging aspect about the position as an admissions advisor is to consistently meet monthly budgets. The best part about the job was the empowerment of helping student find their talents and enroll for a better outcome of career choices. – less

Colorado Technical Unversity Summary
Career Service Technician (Former Employee), Colorado Springs, CO –
Pros: non
Cons: non
A typical day at work was helping students find jobs and internships or externships. I learn to listen to clients needs and how I could be a service to them. Management was great. Co-workers were great. The hardest part of the job was finding resources on the internet. The most enjoyable part of the job was being able to help.

Work very hard for little compensation
Support Coordinator (Current Employee), Colorado Springs, Colorado –
Pros: located in colorado springs
Cons: salary, working holidays, always open, work saturday, lack of managerial passion and trust, also work nights.
you will not be bored if you work in any other environment than Admissions. We are extremely busy, bullied, and under 30,000 a year for salary with a BS.

Management is selfish and out-of-touch. Enrollments matter, that is all.
