All students working or wishing to work must read the section titled Student Employment Guide for Students in entirety to familiarize themselves with the current policies and procedures and the JobX website. There is a separate
guide designed for employers.
Jobs are currently open ONLY to students who are currently on financial aid with work-study and are applying for
financial aid for 2007-2008. Non-aid students are not eligible to apply for work-study jobs until October 1 in the fall. In the spring, work-study students once again have
priority for the first 2 weeks of the semester. Non-aid students who obtained jobs last year are not automatically eligible to keep them and the jobs must be re-advertised for
students on aid.
No student, whether on Work-Study or not, is permitted more than the maximum 12 hours a week or one
'full-time' position, First Years work a maximum of 9 hours per week. Students receiving a stipend for positions such as STRIDE, HCA, etc. are not
eligible for a second job. This policy attempts to offer all students an equal opportunity to work.
Entering First Year students are limited to working in their houses
or one nearby for Dining Services and Housekeeping, or for the America Reads/America Counts Tutoring Program.
Please read the section Work-Study for First Year Students for further
information.
JobX is our web-based method of advertising
student jobs. This program aids Smith College's goal of giving students with Work-Study in their aid packages priority
for all jobs. Employers are now responsible for posting their own jobs and using the software to hire online,
checking student Work-Study status on their own and insuring that they student they hire does not already have
another position. Listings for Work-Study jobs for 2007-2008 are now being advertised to current students on aid. Non-
aid students are eligible to look for work after October 1, 2007.
Students at Smith have many employment options available to them
on-campus, off-campus at qualifying non-profit agencies, or tutoring under the America Reads/America
Counts Program. Treat your application to any job seriously and think about visiting the Career Development
Office's webpage for assistance on resume writing. To check if
you have Work-Study in your aid package or to do your Web Time Entry connect to BannerWeb:
The Student Employment Guide is required
reading for all students wishing to work.
