Job Opportunity

If you know of students who are looking for work in Bloomington this summer, University Division is looking for student workers to help us with the summer orientation program in Teter. Those of you who have worked with us in past summers know how important these student workers are in setting the tone when new students arrive for advising.

The primary responsibility of our summer assistants is to greet new students when they arrive in Teter and to help them complete preparations before meeting with an advisor. The position will run from Wednesday, June 11 through Thursday, July 17, with a training session on the afternoon of Tuesday, June 17. The hours are 8:15 a.m. until approximately 3:15 p.m., weekdays (the actual end time may vary depending on student traffic). Qualifications include excellent communication skills, a positive attitude, reliability, and a genuine enthusiasm for IUB and interest in working with new students. The salary will be $7.00 per hour.


Interested students should send a letter of interest along with their resume to me (mihurley@indiana.edu) as soon as possible. We hope to begin interviewing applicants next week.
