Working for CET: A Work-Life Balance

CET recruits hard-working, challenge-seeking, perfection-loving staff who are committed to education abroad (and have their own study abroad stories to tell!). The culture at CET is fast-paced, but supportive—it is not uncommon to see colleagues pinch hit for each other when work spills to evenings and weekends. Most staff wear several hats and appreciate having a varied to do list.

CET responds to this culture by helping staff achieve a healthy work-life balance. The company offers excellent Paid Time Off leave, allowing staff the chance to unplug when they need to. Other benefits, depending on the position, may include: 401K retirement plan; health and life insurance options; employee assistance program; travel and education-in-service opportunities; professional membership in the International Airlines Travel Agent Network; and special bonuses that may be earned for profit sharing, employee referrals or benchmark anniversaries.

CET Career Paths Span the Globe

CET makes every effort to retain high-performing staff members. As a fast-growing company, CET offers frequent position openings that allow staff to grow professionally in a variety of directions. This kind of advancement often spans the globe—many CET staff members have launched their careers in overseas positions and advanced to US-based positions, or vice versa. Check out our staff page to learn how our current team members have charted their paths at CET.
