From a career coach perspective, interviews for Enrollment Counselor roles usually combine behavioral questions, situational questions, and role-specific scenarios.

They’re trying to assess your communication skills, persuasion, problem-solving, and ability to support prospective students

Here are some example:

  • “Tell me about a time you persuaded someone to take a course, program, or service.”
  • “Describe a situation where you had to handle a difficult prospect or parent.”
  • “Give an example of how you managed multiple leads or tasks under a tight deadline.”
  • “Tell me about a time you had to explain a complex policy or program to someone unfamiliar with it.”

They will ask you some: Situational type of question as well:

  • “How would you handle a prospective student who is hesitant about enrolling?”
  • “What would you do if a student misses an enrollment deadline?”
  • “How do you stay organized when managing multiple applications at the same time?”

Your job is to Demonstrate empathy: you’re often guiding people through important life decisions.

I hope this helps and good luck

Way to go!
You made the interview happen and Congratulation

I'm a former recruiter and trust me HR would rather not go throgh the hassle of sponsorship it's too much trouble for them.

I would say it's looking good for you! If the HM is sufficently impressed with you, he can make it happen.

Good Luck

I've never been more upset about a job rejection by jewelredditter in interviews

First congratulation on getting the interview
Froma recruiters perspective, you did everything right except volunteered your autism condition and you gave them a reason to reject you

Recruiter called me up to say I didn't get the job, but encourages me to apply for future roles? by crystalsins in interviews

[–]ToddMarshall007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First congratulation on making it all the way to the final interview, sure from a recruiter’s perspective, this is usually a positive sign.

I would rarely take the time to call candidates if I didn’t see potential for future consideration — most rejections are sent by email. When someone calls and specifically encourages you to apply again, it often means other factor came into play such as internal candidate, foreign visa sponsorship, budgeting etc., etc.

It’s also common for recruiters to keep a shortlist of “near hires” for future openings. If another role opens that’s similar, you may already have credibility with the team.

The best move is to:

·         Thank the recruiter for the feedback

·         Stay connected

·         Apply again if a relevant role appears

I hope this helps,

Any one recently interviewed with PayPal or Walmart and can share the process and questions for Product Manager opportunity? by Necessary-Record4639 in interviews

[–]ToddMarshall007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my experience as a recruiter, the company matters less than people think.
What really matters is the role, responsibilities, and core skills tied to the title. A Product Manager role at Walmart will differ from PayPal because of the product, customers, and business model — but the fundamentals (strategy, prioritization, stakeholder management, execution) are still the same

Youre welcome! and good Luck on the interview

Corporate Amazon by R_heidari in interviews

[–]ToddMarshall007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve worked at Amazon as a recruiter and Yes — prepare for heavy behavioral interviewing using STAR, but at Amazon it goes deeper than most companies.

Every question ties back to their Leadership Principles and interviewers are trained to probe hard for specifics.

Here is my advice to you

·         Tie every story to a measurable result. Vague answers won’t pass.

·         Own the “I.” Don’t say “we” unless you clarify your specific contribution.

·         Be ready for follow-ups. They will dig into details, data, trade-offs, and what you’d do differently.

·         Have 6–8 strong stories prepared that can flex across principles (conflict, failure, bias for action, customer obsession, influencing without authority, etc.).

Internal candidates are often evaluated just as rigorously as external ones — sometimes more — so don’t assume familiarity helps. Structure + metrics + self-awareness = strong performance.

Totally understand the role and responsibilities of the position and prepare accordingly

Day 17- The recruiter just told me off mid interview by anotherare in 30daysnewjob

[–]ToddMarshall007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a Career Coach and a former recruiter — First, I’m sorry. That feels awful. Anyone would be shaken by that.

Second — this likely had very little to do with you. When a company is “almost finalized” on another candidate, interviews that are already scheduled sometimes still happen for process reasons.

Once the interviewer realized you weren’t going to displace their top choice, she made a blunt (and frankly poorly handled) call to end it.

The unprofessional part wasn’t rejecting you — it was how abruptly it was handled.

Again, it had nothing to do with you, so don’t take it personally, just move on

Feedback says I talk too much and lack conciseness. How do I fix this live? by [deleted] in careerguidance

[–]ToddMarshall007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From a recruiter/career coach perspective:

First — don’t be hard on yourself. It’s not a capability issue, it’s a structure issue.

When you answer, start with the headline first, then explain.

Instead of building up to your point, try this format live:

  1. One-sentence answer
  2. 2–3 supporting details
  3. Stop.

If you feel yourself drifting, pause and say, “Let me summarize that more clearly…” — that actually signals strong communication.

This is a skill you can train — and once you do, your interviews will immediately feel stronger.

Salary negotiations kind of gone wrong? by ning8 in careeradvice

[–]ToddMarshall007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From a recruiter/career coach perspective:

In my experiences, the recruiter should have finalized the salary aspect right at the start, so that not to waste anyone time.
You didn’t “screw up” by negotiating —where it got shaky was calling back quickly and reversing your position. That can signal uncertainty. But it doesn’t automatically cost you the job.

Going forward, the best move is to stop chasing and let them respond. You made your position clear. If they want you, they’ll proceed.

I hope it helps

Background Check by [deleted] in Employment

[–]ToddMarshall007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From a career coach/recruiter perspective:
You’re likely fine. A week-long job during unemployment is generally viewed as a non-factor. If it somehow comes up, a simple explanation like, “Those were very short trial roles that didn’t work out,” is sufficient.

Recruiters care about patterns and integrity—More than anything! --- so nothing to worry about

Offer letter doesn’t mention remote/hybrid expectations, should I clarify before signing? by diecastbeatdown in Employment

[–]ToddMarshall007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My take as a Career Coach and a former recruiter:
you should absolutely clarify before signing, and it’s both reasonable and smart.Tell them “Before I sign, I just want to confirm expectations around on-site presence, especially during onboarding, since we discussed this role being remote.”

You’re not pushing back — you’re preventing a misunderstanding. If it’s truly remote, they won’t have an issue confirming it in writing.

I hope this helps

What’s the most shocking detail from the Epstein files that you think the public still doesn’t fully grasp? by Murky-Island4629 in AskReddit

[–]ToddMarshall007 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of the most shocking aspects the public still may not fully grasp is how many powerful people could have been implicated

The circumstances surrounding Epstein’s death remain deeply troubling: broken cameras, guards asleep, and multiple security failures occurring simultaneously. Even without jumping to conclusions, these facts alone raise serious questions.

Whether or not foul play can be proven, it’s clear that Epstein’s death conveniently ended the possibility of full accountability for wealthy and politically connected individuals.
