Information For Students
How to find a Campus Job
- Look through the on-line list of student employment
opportunities. Pick at least three that seem appropriate for your
schedule and job skills. There are many different kinds of jobs here
at Bard, from office work to outdoor maintenance. Choose one that fits
with your personality and the demands of your academic course load.
- Contact the faculty or staff member via email or telephone, depending
on which form of contact they list in the job description online. Don't
be afraid to follow up! Faculty and staff members get busy during the start
of the semester, so if you don't hear from them within a few days, leave
another voice mail message or send another email to remind them that you
are interested in the position. You can also visit the office of the potential
employer in person during the appropriate office hours if you are unable
to get in touch with them. If that does not work, contact the
Student Employment Office.
