Chapter Consultant
 

I'm thinking about applying. Has anyone else ever done it? Can you share your experiences?

Also, if anyone wants info, pm or email me! I'll pass along the info I have.

our chapter consultant kicked butt
she was from radford, i think
or maybe it was a school in illinois
but her name was jamie
we were all contemplating transferring to her school
after we met her

chapter consultants just give you such a boost of energy though

My friend Jamie applied last year and got the job but turned it down last minute.

I say go for it! I would love to do it when I am done with school (well before I start grad school) It would be an awesome experience traveling everywhere and meeting cool sisters from all over the country!

Best Wishes

I heard they didn't have the postion this year because only one person decided to do it. Hopefully it was just this last year and won't become the norm. The three years I've been in phi sig, we have only had one chapter consultant. She rocked!

Beth- the name you are looking for is Shellie.

The chapter consultant position will be around for 2003-2004. Again from my March Aiming Highlights:

What decisions have been made in regard to the Chapter Consultant Program? Is there a committee working towards re-instituting this program?

Phi Sigma Sigma is currently soliciting applications for 2003-2004 staff positions. Staff members may be graduate students who work part-time with local chapters or travel several weekends a semester. Full-time staff members may be considered based on our specific needs and the candidate pool. If you are interested in applying for a paid staff position (part-time or full-time), please contact Lisa Daly (ldaly@phisigmasigma.org).

So for jess_pom and anyone else interested Go For It! Everyone I know who has been a consultant has said that it is definitely worth it.

Shellie was Theta Mu's Chapter consulant last year also.

I wouldn't mind doing it
But I don't graduate until next year
And even then, I'm moving home to Texas
Where we have an alumnae club but not a chapter
And I'm going to go around looking for some place to start up a chapter
But I still would like to do it

Do you think I should apply even though I'm not graduating until later?

Hey!
I applied last year...but didn't get an interview! But that's ok...I'm having a pretty good time in Quebec this year! I'd reapply, but I'm going back to school next year!

Anyway, while i was active in Phi sig we had 4 consultants (in 3 years).
The first was Cindy, next came Wendy (she was from laverne too wasn't she?) , then Casey and finally Michelle!
I really loved Wendy and Michelle! they were great consultants! I just wish I could have made michelle's stay a bit more interesting ( I was Archon and I meant to take her around town a bit, but I got sick and no one else was really around).

Well good luck to all of you who apply!!

How did they interview you? Where did they interview? Did they come to you?

when Jamie, a sister from my chapter got interviewed she had to fly out to them. I think they paid for the plane ticket and everything. I don't remember though if her interview was at C.O. or if it was somewhere else, but she did have to go to where ever the interview was going to be conducted. I'm not sure if it is the case for every interview but maybe. Hope that helps

Well, applications were due April 1, and I haven't heard anything yet. I email CO to get an idea of the hiring timeline, and they said they hoped to have everyone hired by the beginning of May.

So, I guess it's not looking too promising for me to be a Chapter Consultant this year!

Sister, where is your faith?
If you have it like the grain of a mustard seed, you can move mountains.



Be positive.

Hey Jess!

Hang in there! It's only been a week since the deadline! They probably haven't even read all the applications yet!

Give it another week before even expecting a call! They need time to look the apps over and decide who to invite for an interview!!

I'm crossing my fingers for you!

LITP

Whoo hoo! Lisa Daly called me this morning and I have a phone interview tomorrow! Keep your fingers crossed!!!!

Sending all the phi sig luck your way --------------------->

Crossing my fingers!

Okay, okay how did it go? When do you hear anything official? Hopefully you get it then are assigned to the westcoast so we can meet you out here. Hey I'll even spring for Disneyland tickets.

Good luck

Well, it went pretty well, but it's always hard to tell. They're doing things differently this time, if hired, I'll be stationed in one area, they were talking about upstate NY, and will help schools in the surrounding area.

They are doing second interviews, we should be contacted in a week or so. I'll let you know what I find out. I would have loved to be stationed in CA, but since I'm from the East, they probably try to keep us close by.

The only thing I'm worried about is not getting this position and passing up other ones. We won't know for sure until the end of May, and if I don't get it, I don't want to waste time looking for other jobs.

Oh well, hopefully it'll all work out!

LITP and THANKS!!!!

Ok, it's June 9......... almost a month since my second interview. I called Lisa Daly at CO last Friday to see what's going on, and she said she gave all the stuff to Sandy more than a week ago. She doesn't even know the final decision.

Soooo... I really need to know what's going on. If I get the job, I'm going to work at summer camp, but it starts Wednesday. Sooo.... what do I do? Should I tell camp I can work? What if I don't get hired? I'll be stuck there all summer, unable to work anywhere else.

GRRRRR~~!!!

Well, Sandy Grossman just called to let me know that I wasn't chosen to be a chapter consultant. But, if I would like to volunteer my time, that would be great.

Whatever

ahh, that sucks!

well at least you made it so far that they prolly will recognize your name if you meet them....

I hope you still have a great summer!

Does anybody know who is interviewing for these positions?

They are already full. As for the interviewers, mine were with Lisa Daly and Dianne Macy.
