<p>Anybody like to shed some light as to what are the awesome jobs on campus and the not-so-awesome ones, as well as which ones are harder to get?</p>
<p>I'm planning on attending the job fair that's going to be at vonKleinsmid Center on August 18th. Should I take copies of my resume there?</p>
<p>Same question here. Would it be a good idea to update my (currently) sad-looking resume?</p>
<p>What are some jobs that could help one get some exercise? :)</p>
<p>Like anything else, jobs are what you make of it. My experiences are dated, since I graduated from college in 1979, but according to the folks I've spoken to who have graduated much more recently, the same rule still applies.</p>
<p>My 1st year when I worked on campus, I got a job in the cafeteria of the dorm where I lived checking in students when they came to eat. I enjoyed it because I got to chat with everyone as they came through the line and got to know folks names. I later got a job working for the Associate Provost of the college and got him to agree to let me resurrect two honor societies on campus. Then I got a job working in a sociology resource center (my major). When I went to grad school, I was hired by a professor who really enjoyed my participation in class to do research for him. </p>
<p>My husband had various different jobs the 7 years he was in college--he found them all interesting. He showed slides for an art history class, worked in food sciences & tropical agriculture department labs, washed glassware, and various other jobs.</p>
<p>There are a lot of jobs, so get yourself to the place on campus where the postings are as soon as possible, so you'll have the broadest possible selection. It's always a good idea to see if a favorite professor (in your field) wants you to work for him/her (sometimes they'll even create a job for you if they really want you). It's also a good way to explore an area you MAY be interested in or meet different folks. Often the hiring is done on a 1st come, 1st served basis, so the earlier you explore your options, the more choices you'll have.
