<p>I tried to search on the Wasserman center but only very few jobs are posted on-campus, which is what I would prefer. Would more jobs come up as time passes? Would be be better to apply in the comfort of my bed at home before I actually get to NYU or would welcome week be better? Would it ever be too late to find a job? Not only do I need one for work study $2000 per semester but I also need it to cover some living costs. I will also be a pre-med student so I really need an on-campus job for easy transportation and flexible shifts. </p>
<p>Lastly, in resumes, do we include honors we get in high school and the awards we received? I looked at a couple of the sample ones on the website but none of them included high school accomplishments. I have come to realize that the guide is aimed for the general graduated student population who are actually looking for jobs in the real world, but for incoming freshmen - should we list the past glories on a college job resume? </p>
<p>If you are looking for an on campus job you don’t really need any qualifications unless you are going to be a life guard or something. They are all pretty much entry level standard jobs so listing anything other than like job history, skills, and other basics would be a little much.</p>
<p>Can we go around asking at different places (like the library, gym etc.) for an on-campus job, if we don’t have federal work study, or do we just apply online and wait. I don’t have federal work study and working on-campus can help meet basic expenses, and the whole online process seems to take too much time. Would it be better to go in person, considering that many jobs aren’t posted online. I’m not getting replies when I applied online, do I go to NYU and ask around right now? What are some places best to ask in person for an on-campus job? I’m a freshman</p>

You apply online. Through careernet there are job listings for federal work study students AND Non federal work study students. If you go to the library, gym, ect and ask for a position they will refer you to the website to complete applications (I tried that already because I really wanted a job through the library at night). A few places explained to me that the hiring is done through their HR department and not the actual dept, which is why you apply online and your application is send to who it needs to be. There are plenty of jobs through careernet and I didnt find any of them incredibly time consuming.</p>

I agree. Keep your resume simple, they know you are a student so dont fill your resume with fluff.</p>

There are many work study jobs posted everyday, so just keep your eye out for something that perks your interest and apply. You can apply anytime really… now, welcome week, once classes begin. If you dont have a job by the time classes begin dont be put-off, keep applying. Work Studies pop up all the time on careernet.</p>
