As a student advisor, one of your main responsibilities will be to assist the students assigned to you to register for classes each semester. You will also need to communicate with students who are difficult to reach. If you found yourself in this situation, consider how you would approach the student. Brainstorm a few strategies you would turn to ensure the student did not miss out on selecting their classes. The interviewer will want to hear that you are persistent in reaching out to students and making sure they are successful.

"I would be persistent in reaching out to the student via email and phone, first. If getting ahold of them was difficult, I would contact the RA in their dorm, their parents, and/or their roommate to make sure they were okay. I would do everything in my power to ensure the student was set up for success in the coming semester. If I found out they were nervous or apprehensive, I would listen closely to their concerns and address them."
