Job Description and Expectations

POSITION TITLE: Online Admissions Recruiter - Remote

The Online Admissions Recruiter must be highly motivated, able to communicate effectively, and passionate to market the College, specifically the online area. The position requires an individual to assume a proactive role in increasing the visibility and effectiveness of the College to the community. This includes strategically partnering with professional associations, marketing and media companies, and traditional Jarvis Admission Recruiters to build a prospective student pool that is reflective of the College's goal to increase the student body population.
