To piggy back off of Bryan's email... <div><br></div><div>Although our job posting says the position is best for sophomores and up, I try very hard to hire primarily sophomores because of the amount of training that goes into getting the money mentor up and running. It's beneficial to have the mentor with our office as long as possible. Additionally, most of the students who apply are in a business program; I don't think we've ever hired a non business major, but we don't make it a requirement. Just seems to work out that way. :)</div><div><br></div><div>Thought I'd share... Thanks all!</div><div><br></div><div>Kathy<br><br>On Thursday, January 28, 2016, Ashton, Bryan <<a href="mailto:ashton.53@osu.edu">ashton.53@osu.edu</a>> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

you have peer mentors what are your desired and/or required qualifications for them? Some things we are thinking about is required GPA, grade level, experience, and any other skills you might look for.</span><span style="color:black"><u></u><u></u></span></p>
