What to do First
● |
Before applying for an on campus job, begin or update
your resume. You’ll need it to apply for our on campus
student positions. Keep your resume up-to-date with all
your part-time and summer jobs, your activities, clubs,
volunteer work, and any other information that speaks to
your experiences. |
Key Facts about Working on Campus
● |
If you have Federal Work-Study money,
tell the manager with whom you are interviewing and/or
Human Resources so you can maximize your grant dollars. |
● |
You can have one or two campus jobs. Regardless of how
many jobs you do have, you can work up-to 19 hours
per week. |
● |
We encourage 1st semester Freshman to work
8-10 hours initially so you can adjust to your new
campus, classes and professors, all while you make new
friends and participate in sports or other campus
activities. |
● |
Before starting work you will need to complete Form I-9
and produce documents showing your eligibility to work
in the United States. Click
here for a list of acceptable documents. This is required of ALL
students. Don’t forget your documents at home and
remember to leave them in a safe place when you bring
them to campus. |
● |
There is a 2 hour work minimum for each shift, so you’ll
want to be careful when scheduling work between classes. |
● |
You will be paid every 2 weeks and we’ll provide you
more information under the Payroll section. |
|
How to Find an On-Campus Job
● |
You must
apply online so
we have a legal record of you application and interest. If hired, all of your new hire paperwork will be
completed electronically and emailed to
jobs@franklinpierce.edu. |
● |
Available student positions are available on our
Franklin Pierce website.
Jobs are in alphabetical order, so scroll down the page to find
all “Student” jobs. An illustration is below:
|
● |
When
you find a position of interest, select the job and review the
description and qualifications carefully. To continue to apply,
you’ll be prompted to complete a short application where you can
also upload your resume. |
● |
You can use your Franklin Pierce email or your own personal
email. However, whatever email address you use will be the same one
Human Resources will use to communicate with you about our
hiring process. So select the email address that you use most. |
● |
The hiring manager will then be in touch
with you to discuss interviews. |
● |
If
you’ve already networked with managers and you think they want
to hire you, if you have not previously worked on campus you still need to formally apply online.
If you have previously worked on campus and are being rehired
your supervisor will notify Human Resources that you are being
rehired and a work paper will be generated. |
|
|
Once an
Offer is Made and Before You Begin Work
● |
We know both you and
your manager will be eager to have you start work. However,
before your first day, you must complete the new hire process.
Depending on the position you fill, there may be additional
requirements. As mentioned earlier, you’ll complete this
paperwork electronically and email forms to
jobs@franklinpierce.edu.
|
● |
Once your new hire
paperwork had been received by Human Resources you will
be sent a link to a brief Zoom video conference call to
verify your IDs. We will need to see the IDs that you
have used for your I9 form. The video call should take
just a few minutes and will be scheduled Monday, Tuesday
and Wednesday mornings between 9am and 11am. |
● |
Any student under the age
of 18 years old must present a signed
NH DOL Parental Permission form to Human Resources
before completing the new hire paperwork. |
● |
If you will drive a
campus automobile or shuttle, you will be required to have at
least 2-3 years’ experience with a clean driving record and you
will need to authorize FPU to conduct a motor vehicle background
check. Each year you drive, the motor vehicle background check
will be completed. |
● |
If your job includes
working with minors, NH state law requires a
background check. |
● |
If you are on
an International Student on a F1 Visa, there will be other
requirements (see the
International Student Employment Fact Sheet) |
Payroll
Process
● |
Once you
complete your new hire paperwork and your IDs have been verified
a work paper will be sent to your supervisor. |
● |
Once the supervisor has completed and signed the work paper they
will send it to you for signature. The signed work paper must be
emailed to hrdept@franklinpierce.edu. |
● |
Once you
complete your new hire paperwork and the work paper, signed by
your supervisor, has been returned to HR, you will complete and
submit electronic timesheets in
Star Garden and get paid every two weeks. |
● |
It’s important to keep
track of your time. Remember, there is a 2 hour work minimum
for each shift. Your direct supervisor will need to review and
approve your electronic timesheet no later than 9:00am on
the Monday of a payroll week. Plan accordingly. |
● |
You can sign up for
Direct Deposit if you want to have your pay be directly deposited into your account. |
Visit
the Human Resources Virtual Lobby from 8:30am to 4:00pm, Monday through
