If hired, how long will I be an Associate?

From the summer of one year until March 31st of the following year. Associates start training in the summer so that they can hit the ground running at the beginning of interview season in August, and by the time Operations Associates have gone through one full season with us they are skilled enough to help us plan and prepare for the next season. At that point, Operations Associates move up to higher roles, acting as leaders and managers to the next cohort of Operations Associates.

What happens after the Associate program is over?

Vericant is a rapidly growing company and we are always looking to keep great people. For those who meet and even exceed expectations by working hard and constantly striving to improve, the work you do during the interview season will translate directly to your next, more permanent role at the company, whether it is remaining in Operations or moving into other areas.

Will there be opportunities to work on non-Operational tasks?

Yes, you will have opportunities to work on other projects, whether in Marketing, Sales, CRM, or HR, depending on your strengths and interests. We give employees the change to explore and grow with small projects so that they are ready to step into new positions in the future. Previous employees have:

  • Delivered marketing presentations about the Vericant interview to students and their families
  • Learned Python and written programs which are now core to Vericant’s operations
  • Designed and implemented new HR systems
  • Planned awesome company events
  • Created new company policies
