Ashford is having a huge hiring event on March 12 for enrollment counsellors yet there is a huge loss financially and they have already hired hundreds of sales reps. Does this mean they will be trimming the top $$$ folks and hire cheaper replacement?

Nothing to see here folks. Just Smile and Dial.
75 more people started on the job in San Diego yesterday
Do they plan on hiring more models for admissions and "university advisors?"
Allegedly on or around the week of February 25th of this year there were two things that took place. First, there was a town hall meeting with BTS employees telling them the company's plan to go private. Second, there was an email sent to some employees asking that they not sell any of their stock until the company's stock became profitable. Not sure if this is true, but if it is, maybe it's the reason for the jump in stock price.
It appears that most of that hiring will occur in San Diego only. doesn't bode well for Denver or Clinton IA. i bet that they will be closing the call center in Denver soon.
Well the stock price jumped $2.00 overnight even after them reporting another net loss. What i have found out is that several investment firms own BPE stock so my guess is they are some how manipulating the price.
Someone on the call continued to blow smoke up the ass of those investors saying how encouraged he was by the progress they were making in turning around the enrollment. he said nothing about the University of the Rockies closing the Denver on ground campus or how they have had to sublease many floors of both buildings they had rented.
I guess they are having a hiring event because they have laid off so many staff over the last several years and now they need to increase revenue and that is the only way to do it.
