<p>So I have a job offer to be "CFO" at this new company that my friend's brother is starting up. I'm a senior, so college application are due this fall, and I'll only have had this position for about 2 months by the time the priority deadline roles around. </p>
<p>Is this position worth it to take? I already have another job at a doctor's office, but I don't have that many leadership positions. Since this is senior year, I don't really want to overload myself anymore than what I am already doing.</p>
<p>It would probably look pretty good, though not fantastic. But don’t do it just for applications, or if you think your grades will suffer. Just do it if you want to.</p>
<p>Do you have any kind of qualifications to be the CFO? Have you taken a single finance class?</p>
<p>^ What he (she?) said.</p>
<p>If you’ve taken business/finance classes, and especially if you want to do something in business, you should probably take it. It sounds like a good idea to me, as long as it doesn’t interfere with you maintaining your grades/working on applications.</p>
<p>Well i will be taking a business class this year, and i want to major in information systems, which is part of the business school.</p>
<p>I mean he’s right, it would be a good activity if you plan to go into business. But you don’t want to put yourself in over your head both in time commitment and the actual job responsibilities.</p>
<p>May I ask why this friend wants you to be the CFO?</p>
<p>It’s my friend’s brother, but mainly because he wants me to help him with the business plan and because I am decent enough at math.</p>
