Vantaggi
Worked independently to promote Kaplan products through postering, tabling around campus, attending events, making partnerships with clubs and societies and asking students to enter draws/ contests around campus. Made your own hours. Got to do a little bit of everything. Great pay for a student job. The supervisor for my area was really helpful.
Svantaggi
Management was out of town, so communicated via phone/skype. Training ends up being more of a learn as you go thing because there isn't really anyone to show you. But that also allows you to be creative and apply the marketing techniques to your campus specifically. Since there was only a loose schedule sometimes it would be hard to motivate yourself to work the hours. Also, some things only take a short amount of time and you would have to come into campus to work for an hour. Although you could probably make yourself a schedule where you didn't necessarily have to do that.
