Information
- How to hire a student employee
- Create a job requisition and post the position on the student jobs site in Workday (on-campus jobs are no longer posted on Handshake).
- Review applications and interview candidates.
- When you have selected a final candidate, move the selected candidate forward to “Offer” in the Workday Recruiting dashboard and send them a job offer with position and wage details via Workday.
- Candidate needs to accept offer in Workday.
- After offer is accepted, check your Workday inbox for message to launch onboarding, which sends required forms to candidate in their Workday inbox.
- Candidate completes new hire forms in Workday and meet with HR representative for I-9 document review.
- After all new hire forms and I-9 review are completed, you will receive a notification in Workday letting you know the new hire is ready to start working.
- New Hire must complete New Student Employee Orientation (if it’s there first time working on campus) and Environmental Health & Safety Training within the first week of employment.
