Thread regarding Education Management Corporation layoffs

Quitting admissions rep position at EDMC is a positive in interviewing for new jobs

I quit less than 1 year at EDMC and found a good new job very quickly. Too quick actually because I thought I'd take some time off to do party, get some more strange, and do more drugs. During the process of being interviewed for new job positions, I answered the very obvious reasons for resigning at EDMC. Moral and ethical reasons. Cold calling prospective students who aren't capable of being a successful students. I felt horrible for my students who were successful. They are now in debt from loans for a degree at a lousy school that won't get them a job...and all that Federal Grant money going to waste at taxpayer expense. Talking smack on a previous employer as a reason for quitting a former job during an interview is never a good idea. Unless of course the employer is EDMC. I'm so glad I didn't wait till I got laid off after that Titanic sinks. Had I done so, the interviewers would make their own decisions about a person who stayed on duping idiots into debt at the taxpayer expense. Well at least the positive in my experience working at EDMC was being able to get some strange, party, and do drugs during the period I worked there.

Seeing from your grammar, you probably graduated from an EDMC school! What skills could you possibly posses from working at EDMC, besides swindling young people out of money!!!???

"Well at least the positive in my experience working at EDMC was being able to get some strange, party, and do drugs during the period I worked there." What a hypocrite. Ironic you left for moral and ethical reasons. Sounds like you were part of the problem.

Or go back to EDMC. They're always looking for a few good losers like you.
