\"University<\/a>Rather you are a potential NFL prospect or simply just a student trying to get a degree, the first question your going to ask yourself is which University\u2019s should I attend.<\/p>\n

Most students have parents, grandparents, or other role models to help them make the decision on which university they should attend. Others aren\u2019t as fortunate to have such great people in their lives so that\u2019s why each university has a recruiting specialist.<\/p>\n

The recruiting specialist job is to recruit students to the university that they are employed with.<\/p>\n

This process of recruitment takes time and goes by many different steps.<\/p>\n

The first step would be to Identify prospective student.<\/p>\n

This process can be done through going to different high schools and visiting with the students. Also by attending college fairs and having campus visits.<\/p>\n

The recruitment specialist will make many phone inquiries, e-mail inquiries, and things along that line.<\/p>\n

Recruitment specialist will also have large events on campus such as an open house, meet and greet events, and group tours.<\/p>\n

This allows the students to get to know the university better and also interact with other students at the university.<\/p>\n

At these events the university and recruitment specialist will offer prizes, give away goody bags, and have different events going on such as a live band or games to play.<\/p>\n

Some recruiters such as global recruiters have more duties and get the opportunity to travel around the world. Global recruiters are trying to get more international students in their university to create more diversity for the university.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is important that growing universities internationalize their student population in order to maintain a strong position in our globalized world and I aid in that effort,\u201d International Global Recruitment Specialist Jennifer Felps said.<\/p>\n

The global recruitment specialists at Texas A&M Texarkana are part of the Study Texas consortium. Which allows them to travel to different countries across the world in order to recruit students.<\/p>\n

The next step for a recruitment specialist is to identify what the prospective student is wanting in a college. Such as a degree program, class size, career opportunities, etc.<\/p>\n

By figuring this out the recruitment specialist knows what they need to focus on and what they need to focus on less in order to get that student enrolled in their university.<\/p>\n

For example if a student is having pricing concerns and that is that students main concern then the recruitment specialist would mainly focus on trying to help that student get grants, scholarships, and loans.<\/p>\n

Next the recruiter will inform the student on how their university can help them achieve their goals while gaining the full college experience.<\/p>\n

For example there are two college programs in the city of Texarkana, one being Texas A&M Texarkana and the other being Texarkana College.<\/p>\n

With Texarkana College being only a two year University a recruiter from Texas A&M may tell the student that they wouldn\u2019t be able to get a bachelors degree or masters degree at Texarkana College and also wouldn\u2019t be able to grasp the full college experience seeing how it is only a two year university.<\/p>\n

On the other hand a recruiter at Texarkana College may tell a student that from a financial stand point their college is quite a bit cheaper than Texas A&M Texarkana and that they could always transfer afterwards.<\/p>\n

The next process would be for the recruiter to assist the students with the admissions process from start to finish.<\/p>\n

By doing so it establishes a relationship between the student and the recruiter. It also makes the student feel as if the recruiter cares about the their well being and isn\u2019t just trying to recruit the student but actually help the student.<\/p>\n

Through these steps the recruiter needs to keep in constant contact with the student from beginning to end. This makes the student feel as if he or she matters, which they do matter so they should feel this way if you want that student, enrolled in your university.<\/p>\n

Last but most definitely not least a recruiter should make that student feel comfortable with every process from prospective student to admitted student.<\/p>\n

When asked what makes her a good recruiter this is what Mrs. Felps had to say, \u201cI would say I am a pro when it comes to letting people know what to expect in college, how to get into college, how to do well in college, and how to look for the job after you graduate college.\u201d<\/p>\n

If you follow these steps on what it takes to recruit a student to your university then you should have no problems being a good recruitment specialist.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
