The admissions team at Merriam Music is responsible for guiding prospective students towards the teachers, programs, and outcomes that best match their goals, so they get to a place of satisfaction and personal reward as quickly as possible, and with lasting results.
In many senses, we’re matchmakers. The invaluable link between teacher and student is paramount to a successful and enjoyable experience here at the school, and it’s important enough to us that we’re one of the only schools in North America to have an admissions team.
We spend the time to learn about each student, what motivates them, their past experiences, their future goals, and pair them with one of our over 150 directly hired, trained, and employed teachers. The job pace can vary greatly over the course of the year, but the sense of reward is constant.
You’ll spend your time interacting with prospective students and clients in both inbound and outreach settings. A successful team member will likely have past sales experience, though the most important traits are an excitement for others’ success, internal competitiveness, and love of quickly developing interpersonal relationships.
