Position Summary/Job Description

What you would be doing in this role:
  • Provide students with academic advising, major exploration, transfer opportunities, educational programming, and course registration assistance.
  • Assist incoming students with transition to the College by engaging in conversations about time management, study skills and test taking strategies.
  • Maintain accurate documentation, data, and reports across various platforms to contribute toward the College's Student Success Plan.
  • Integrate data-informed decision-making and evidence-based practices into daily work.
  • Provide resources, referrals, and information to assist students in navigating the college.

  • Master's degree: Required in Counseling, Higher Education, Social Work, Student Affairs, or a related field.
  • Experience: Open to various levels of experience in higher education but working with a culturally and socioeconomically diverse student population is highly desirable.

  • Technology Skills: Proficient in various computer software programs and SaaS including Microsoft Office suite, Airtable, Mongoose, Calendly, Ellucian-Colleague or similar higher education platforms.
  • Relational skills: Relationship building is a central part of the role, so strong interpersonal and active listening skills are essential.

  • Additional Skills: Collaboration, flexibility, innovation, strategic thinking, and a positive attitude.
What will set you apart as a candidate:
  • Bi-lingual ability: Our College has a linguistically diverse student population, so while not required, for this position the ability to read and write in Spanish, or another language, is preferred.
For applying we ask that you answer the following questions by submitting and uploading on a word document or pdf.
  • Why do you want to work with us at HCCC?
  • How does your past work/ educational experience make you a great candidate for this job?
