Looking for an awesome summer job? Search no longer!

 

UW Oshkosh Admissions is hiring 10-12 outstanding students for the best summer job this side of graduation… being a UWO Summer Ambassador! What do these students do, you ask? As a summer ambassador, you’ll lead campus tours for prospective students and be the face of UWO to the hundreds of families and guests who visit during June, July and August. In addition to tours, you’ll also have the opportunity to be trained in another area of office operations and gain other valuable skills.

Top students in this position are good communicators, enthusiastic, love getting their steps in each day and enjoy working with people. They enjoy being a UW Oshkosh student and are involved on campus. This position looks excellent on a resume, because you’ll become proficient in customer service, communication, and guest care.

Summer Ambassadors earn $10 an hour (at up to 40 hours per week!). Plus, you’ll receive $60 in Titan gear to wear on your tours, and free summer scoop ice cream on Tuesdays. Yeah, that’s right, free ice cream. You can’t beat that.

 

Job Duties:

  • Lead summer tours for prospective students and their families.
  • Be actively involved in admissions online recruitment efforts, including participation on social media.
