The responsibility of the Student Employment Office (SEO) is to assist students and supervisors with on-campus employment, to be an advocate for both student workers and supervisors, and to implement and enforce our hiring practices and policies.

 How To Get A Job

STEP 1

All employment paperwork (application, tax forms, I-9, ID’s, Service Employment Agreement) must be completed and on file prior to looking for a job. These forms can be found in the "Applications" tab to the left, or you can go directly to the HR/Student Employment Office in the School of Government.  

STEP 2     There are 3 ways you can get a job.

1- View the "Current OPENINGS" page on the internal SEO webpage.  If you see a job you would like to apply for, a resume must be submitted to the Student Employment Office by the listed deadline. The SEO will provide the department supervisor with the submitted resumes and the supvisor will review the resume's, interview and hire the students they are interested in.  Resume's turned in directly to the supervisor will be discarded.

2 - You may be placed in a job by visiting the Student Employment Office on a first come - first serve basis.  The best time to get a job is at the beginnig and end of each term.  You will be placed in a job based on the employers need, your experience, your class schedule and desire.

3- Depending on your academic major or minor, an instructor of the same discipline can hire you based on their department need, such as a TA, or "Critter Caretaker".  Hiring is handled through the instructor, but Step 1 above needs to be completed before work is to start.

STEP 3

Once you have been placed in a job, you will need to make contact with the supervisor and further learn the job expectations and responsibilities, and the departments' employment policy.

Work!  Have a great semester!
