This job requires the capacity to communicate with students and Crimson employees with clarity, professionalism, and kindness. You will be expected to be responsive to all communications within 24 hours, including on weekends, and you will be compensated for these additional hours.

You are Organized:
This position requires organization and keeping track of the portfolio status and case details of a varying number of students. Competency in the Google Suite (Docs, Sheets, Slides, Gmail) is strongly encouraged.

You are Adaptable:

The heart of our program is the extremely hands-on support we provide to our students; the nature of this work requires that you are very comfortable with managing unexpected situations. You must be the type of person who thrives in dynamic environments that call for flexibility and collaborative proactivity.

You Have Excellent Constructive Criticism and extensive knowledge on the art school application process:
The most important task of this job is consulting students in the development and perfection of their portfolio. We look for mentors who have:
1. Extensive knowledge and experience on the art school application process
2. A strong and deep understanding of what admissions committees look for.
3.The capacity to help students reflect and glean insights from experiences.
4. The capacity to ask insightful and helpful questions.
