Office of Undergraduate Admissions UMD - Summer Internship

The Office of Undergraduate Admissions is looking to hire several paid interns to work in the office throughout the summer of 2012. The primary responsibility of each Intern will be to provide campus tours to prospective students, families and groups visiting campus. Other responsibilities include responding to calls in our Public Inquiry area, staffing the front counter and greeting guests in the Rossborough Inn and Mitchell Building, and collaborating with other individuals on special office projects as assigned.

This is a full-time position for rising Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors that will require 40 hours/week and several weekend tours throughout the summer. On average each intern will need to commit to 5-7 Saturday tours of their choosing along with mandatory attendance and participation in our annual College Access Conference (Saturday, June 23) for prospective students and their families. Although this is a full-time position, students who are taking summer courses on campus are encouraged to apply as well. Please be advised that it is University policy that no student is permitted to work over 40 hours/week, so if you have another on campus job, please make sure you will not be scheduled during office hours and will not go over 40 hours. If you have an off-campus job, please make sure that you will not be scheduled during office hours before applying.
