Campus: Tempe

Student Recruitment Coord

Job Description

At Arizona State University, we measure ourselves not by whom we exclude, but rather by whom we include and how they succeed. Unlike many other top film schools, which measure themselves by who they exclude, The Sidney Poitier New American Film School is inclusive. ASU's undergraduate film majors represent the creative diversity of our country, with more than 40 percent of its students from under-represented backgrounds.
Under the direction of the Student Experience Manager, the Student Recruitment and Engagement Coordinator often serves as the first contact for prospective undergraduate and graduate students, considering applying to ASU. The ideal Student Recruitment and Engagement 

Coordinator will be an effective communicator, especially via email who brings an empathic, service-oriented and reassuring approach in a fast-paced environment. The successful candidate will be skilled at building affinity with prospective students, presenting program benefits, and addressing barriers to enrollment. Affinity is built via telephone communication, written communication, in-person meetings, and events, held on campus, off-campus, and online. We are looking for an individual who can foster and maintain relationships between high schools, community colleges, universities, and ASU by acting as a bridge from pre-enrollment and admissions with prospective students to engagement in our School and community events as current students.
