Welcome to the Student Employment Program

What kind of jobs can I get on-campus?

  • Federal Work Study
  • Non-Federal Work Study
  • Temporary Positions
  • Project Employment

Getting Started

Step 1: Apply for a free account with CareerTrax. CareerTrax is our e-recruiting tool that enables you to search for jobs, upload your resume, and apply directly to jobs on-campus. Obtaining an application for CareerTrax in the Center for Student Development and Outreach in SUL-349.

Step 2: Once you receive an email that your CareerTrax account is active - search on the employer of "Student Employment Office at Purdue Calumet" and click on "Jobs" under that heading to find on-campus job that you wish to submit your application. If you have already completed the first step and received your password you may access CareerTrax now.

Because each on-campus department’s hiring process is different, they will indicate in the job posting how to apply for their position. Each posting will have the department’s contact information, so we suggest calling them directly, if you have questions.

Step 3: Have a current resumé.

An interview by the department contact(s) will be conducted for the open position, so it is important for you to have a current resumé. Resumé workshops are offered weekly by Career Services at the Center for Student Development and Outreach. Learn about tips online for creating a resumé or visit Career Services for a resumé assistance workshop.

Step 4: Submit the necessary paperwork to Payroll.

Once you have been selected for a position, your employer will complete either a Federal Work Study Authorization form (available at the Student Employment Office) or a Student Wage Authorization Form. You will need to complete a Student Employment Work Rules form with your supervisor. Hiring forms must be turned into the Payroll Office, which is located in the Lawshe Building.
