Student Employment

Two types of jobs are available to Earlham College students: On-Campus Workstudy and Off-Campus Workstudy positions. To find out what positions are currently available, check the listings at the Career Development Center or you may go to their new Web database, eRecruiting, at earlham.erecruiting.com. Log in with username ECworkstudy, and the password quaker. From this site you can review all of the available On- and Off-Campus Workstudy positions according to the Career Development Center.

On-Campus Workstudy positions are part of a student’s financial aid package. You must have been granted financial aid from the Financial Aid Office to be hired into an On-Campus Workstudy position. These positions can be found with almost any department on campus. So, if you are interested in working for a particular department, contact that department directly. Or, come to the Career Development Center to look at the entire list.

Off-Campus Workstudy positions are service internships within the Richmond community. Again, you must be granted a workstudy position through Financial Aid to apply for these positions. If you would like to be more involved in the service community and develop your skills at the same time, an Off-Campus Workstudy position affords a perfect way to do just that. Contact the Service Learning Office or the Career Development Center for a listing of positions.

A limited number of Non-Workstudy positions are available on campus. Some of these positions include tutors, teaching assistants, public affairs copy-writers, certified lifeguards and food service positions. To find out about these positions, contact departments directly or the Career Development Center for available positions.

If you are still having trouble finding employment, you can leave your name and phone number with the Career Development Center. The Center passes students’ names along when offices call to post an opening.
