Reminders to Campus Student Employers

As we prepare for students to arrive this Fall, remember that, if you have student campus jobs to fill, there are two requirements: 1. Jobs must be posted for a minimum of five days before a student hiring form may be submitted. Make sure that any prior jobs you posted and which may have expired, are edited with a later expiration date, so that all students have access to the job postings. 2. All student candidates for campus jobs MUST have a resume posted on MaroonNet, as a part of their professional development. Please include this requirement when you post your jobs. A reminder of this requirement has been posted on the student daily email bulletin. Career Services staff are available to assist students as needed with this process, either in person or by phone. Thanks for your help in this process. If you have questions or need assistance, please contact Career Services.

Important Information - On-Campus Employment Hiring Requirements for Students effective Fall 2018

Roanoke College sees opportunities for students to work on campus as an important step in your professional development. As such, it’s important for students to present an appropriate resume as a job candidate, regardless of the setting. Please be aware that all on-campus student job postings to be filled, starting fall 2018 or later, will require that student candidates have an acceptable resume posted on MaroonNet, BEFORE the student may be considered for employment. This will not affect students returning to jobs they currently hold on campus, only those hired in new positions that begin Fall 2018 or later. If you are planning to seek new campus jobs that will start with the opening of Fall Semester or later, you need to have your resume ready and posted in advance. Career Services staff are available throughout the summer, in person or by phone/email, to help students in developing resumes, to provide tips on how to use MaroonNet to best present yourself as a candidate, and to help you learn how to best use MaroonNet overall in a job search. Career Services staff members are available M-F, 8am-4:30pm Eastern time. If you’d like to make an appointment, please let us know some days and time ranges that will work for you. There is a very short (3-4 minute) instructional video, with an accompanying handout packet, on Resume Writing found at this link: https://www.roanoke.edu/inside/a-z_index/career_services/students/job_search. Scroll down to the header Job Search Skill Tips, and Resume Writing will be the first in the list. This video, however, does not include information on use of MaroonNet. Don’t procrastinate! Plan now to take care of this important task.

August Student Employees

Supervisors, if you have student workers needing to return to campus prior to move-in on August 26th, please notify Amanda Beard in Residence Life & Housing (houff@roanoke.edu) with their names and student ID numbers. Please include the date they will need to move in.
