Summer Work-Study

JobX Enhancements

Enhancements have been made to the Job-X platform.  When logging in, employers may notice a different view.

Students will notice the biggest changes, as they will now have to log in to apply for a job.  Some of the exciting new features for students are that they will be able to apply for more than one job at a time and will be able to view all of the applications that they have submitted on their user dashboard.

We are currently working on creating new user guides for both students an employers.

Processing Work-Study Hires for the 2018-2019 Aid Year

Departments may now process work-study hires for the 2018-2019 academic year in Core-CT using the UC_TBH_WS template. Please be sure to enter 2019 as the aid year. The Job Effective Date for Fall work-study hires should be no earlier than August 24th, as work-study begins on that date and ends on May 9th for those students with full-year awards. Also, if you are hiring a student for the entire academic year, be sure to select Fall/Spring for the semester. If you use Fall, it will only encumber the fall portion of the students award.
