Dear members of the Class of 2013,

The Admission Office is beginning the hiring process for the 2012-2013 Senior Interviewer position.  As many of you are aware, this position has direct impact on leaving your legacy at Wesleyan and shaping who will be in the freshman class. A brief job description includes:

  • Provide support during WesFest and other special events in the fall and spring
  • Other office tasks as needed such as data entry and answering phone calls/emails

We will have two open information sessions, Wednesday, February 29 at 12pm and Thursday, March 1at 12pm, where we will go over details of the position and answer questions. Current Senior Interviewers will also be there to answer your questions.  Both meetings will be held at the Office of Admission in the McKelvey Room and Beach Conference Room, respectively.

 Please see your e-mail of 2/21 for an attached application.  Note that the application deadlines for students on campus and for those studying abroad are Monday, March 19 & Monday, August 13 at 5pm, respectively. If you are unable to attend either of the two information sessions and would like to learn more about the position, I would encourage you to speak with any of our current Senior Interviewers or email me at lspringer@wesleyan.edu.

 For those of you who are abroad but can correspond by email, you’ll find pictures, profiles, and email addresses of the current crop at: http://www.wesleyan.edu/admission/ask_a_question/seniors/index.html .

Those on-campus candidates we would like to invite to participate in the first round of group interviews, during the lunch hours of the week of March 26 – March 30, will be notified by email on Thursday, March 22.  I hope this information is helpful. I look forward to getting to know a number of you better in the coming weeks.
