Earlier this year I was made a DMU Brand Ambassador which made me rather happy. Not only is this fantastic for my C.V but what was more important to me is that you had to be recommended. It was really touching to me that people think I am the kind of person they want to represent the university. I did get interviewed first though, which was rather fun as it was a group interview. I think I only got the job because out of 60 something people I was the first one to break the ice. pahaha. Either way I found it interesting to hear from other students on different courses and in different faculties. Everyone has such different experience whilst here.
The job entails lots of different tasks from open days and telemarketing to being filmed… thats right I was filmed. I enjoy all the jobs to be fair probably because I have always been a people person. I always volunteer to do as much as possible when I have the time. Oh and here’s that rather embarrassing video if you want to see it :/ pahaha. I enjoyed it at the time but its a little cringe worthy to watch back.

Look at my stupid face.
Anywayyy.. on top of that I help out with interviews. I did do this last year a bit but now I do it every week. Unlike some of my colleagues I do enjoy doing this. I always invest myself in whatever I am doing and that includes this course and its future, so I find interviews great because you get to meet possible future students. I find it quite interesting to be fair. This also kind of ties in with my ambassador work too as part of my job is telemarketing. Luckily that doesn’t mean I have to sell anything to anyone it just means I follow up those students that get offers and talk to them about anything else they might want to know and so on. It always helps if you can say you have met them before.
I’m doing interviews again tomorrow but its promising to be a long one. I don’t really mind though just hoping we get to spot some talent :)
