Departmental Job Program

What is the Departmental Job Program?
The Departmental Job Program is another avenue of student employment at FHSU. Graduate or undergraduate students who are interested in working on-campus but do not qualify for Federal Work-Study are eligible for a Departmental Job. (This program is not based on financial aid.)
 
How do I apply for a Departmental Job?
Students interested in the Departmental Job Program will need to contact the Student Employment Office (SEO) for a listing of the currently available on-campus job openings. Since positions can be posted at any time throughout the year, students are encouraged to check frequently with the SEO for new listings. After reviewing the list, it is your responsibility to contact the departments of your choice that have vacancies. You will need to go through an application/interview process with the employer(s) at this time. You must also be enrolled In six or more credit hours per fall/spring semesters and three or more credit hours for the summer semester to work in the Departmental Job Program.
 
I found a job! Is there anything else I need to do?
Once you have been hired, you must return to the Student Employment Office in Custer Hall, Third Floor, to complete employment paperwork. For payroll purposes, the substance abuse policy statement, W-4 form, K-4 form, and I-9 form must be filled out as soon as possible. Federal law requires this paperwork must be completed before you begin employment. You will also need to bring the following personal documents to determine employment eligibility: (1) social security card or birth certificate; and (2) driver's license or Tiger card; or (3) U.S. passport, when applicable. After this paperwork is completed, you may begin your new job! Congratulations and good luck!
 
How do I get paid?
After you have completed all the necessary paperwork in the Student Employment Office (SEO), you will be set up on the student payroll system. Effective June 15, 2008, the student employment wage is $7.25 per hour. Paydays are every other Friday. Starting with the summer 2006 payroll, FHSU uses EFT (electronic fund transfer) as the payroll distribution process. You may select to have your earnings deposited to your Tiger Card or to the bank account of your choice. You may complete a direct deposit form (voided check required) at the SEO to establish your direct deposit. Your pay advice will be mailed to your local address, so you will want to be sure to keep this address current in Tiger Tracks.
