Seriously, the high pressure sales combined with management's, "It's all about the students" horseshit has to f--- with your brain. We make our livings by preying on the amount of financial aid some kid or psych patient is eligible for.
And those job statistics? Abysmal. But who cares as long as the check clears, am I right?
I ain't mad at anyone trying to get paid. BUT f--- EDMC, they know how they're f---ing you.
It's funny how AUO went back to the old model of recruiting. I thought Gavlik wanted to transition to the student success model in order to help students? Now, the focus is on nothing but numbers and with us going back to term from non means students can get high stipends again just like the old days. If you are a vet at AUO you need 30 students to start class in 6 months. Same goals as the old times, good to see its going back to the old guard. It's funny to see the money grab before they close the doors at AUO Pittsburgh.
You're right. It's not like that anymore. It's worse! The freakin idiots have doubled goals and given us the SOS to work with.
So where's the problem? Certainly not with SA's.
The problem is with the so called managers who don't know sh*t but think they do.
It's not like that anymore. The old guard keeps pushing this idea because that's the only way they know. Shut it and evolve.
Back in the day if you let someone off the phone that was intrested in school n had loans left you would get sent into a room to listen to the call n get embarrassed by Carla or Renee then put on a warning for the next time to get the Application regardless of if it was a good fit for them or not. I hated those moments n quit 4 months in crazy those whores lasted that long
