I emailed my resume to the coordinator for the Campus Ambassador role, detailing my attendance at a large school without a current Southern Tide Ambassador, my involvement in extracurriculars, and my prior experience in retail and marketing. They only responded by asking for my Instagram profile, and after I sent it, I never heard back. It seems like the position is decided based on social media strength.

I applied online through their website and heard back a few weeks later about a phone interview. I chatted with a recent grad who used to be a campus ambassador and had moved up in the company. It was a pretty laid-back chat where they mainly wanted to hear about my campus involvement and any ideas I had for marketing the company at my school. I haven't heard of anyone not getting an offer, but they typically only select one to two ambassadors per school, depending on its size.

It was a phone call interview. They asked questions about my background and experience, but mostly about my interest in this position and company. They really just wanted to confirm my commitment to their brand and check if I was personable enough to interact with students and represent the brand well.

It was a pretty straightforward process. The staff seemed friendly. The interview was conducted over Zoom. I first met with the hiring manager, and then I met with the current customer service reps, which was good to get a feel for who I'd be working with.
