Student Employment
The office of Career Services & Internships coordinates the posting of on-campus and off-campus jobs for students. Available positions are posted online in the Mayville State Jobs Network. Student job seekers are expected to review those job postings, and apply for any of the positions by following the application instructions posted with each job. Career Services also maintains a list of local community employers, and that list is also available in the Jobs Network and the student portal.
Some campus jobs may only be available to students with a work-study financial aid award, while many do not require a work-study award. Each posted job description will include minimum requirements to apply. Student jobs may range from a few hours up to 20 hours per week. Full-time student employment is available on a limited basis during the summer. The wage scale is typically at the federal minimum wage, but may increase at each department’s prerogative depending on skills required, longevity with the position, and departmental funds available. Department budgets for all student employment, including those funded by federal work-study, are managed at the department level.
