How to Apply for a Student Job On-Campus:

  1. To search and apply for student jobs on-campus, click on the link below.
  2. On the Student side (blue), login using your MyUH User Name (the part of your hawaii.edu email address that comes before the "@" sign) and your MyUH/UH email password.
  3. Complete your student profile and then search for jobs in the program(s) for which you are eligible.
  4. Read the job duties and qualifications of positions. Add the jobs that you wish to apply for to your referral list by clicking on the "Add to My Referrals" button at the bottom of the form.
  5. To process referrals that you have selected, move to the "My Referrals" tab, select the jobs that you want to print referrals for (maximum of 5 jobs per day) and then click on the "Procees Referrals" button.
  6. In the "Processed Referrals" section, click on the position title to pull up the job referral and print the referral. Referrals contain employer's contact information and instructions on how to contact them for an interview. Do not destroy/lose the referral form -- you need it to complete the hiring process.
  7. Contact the department(s) you are seeking a position with and request an interview. Take your referral form with you to your interview. If applicable, take your Financial Aid Award Letter with you. Some departments may also want a resume or ask you to complete a departmental paper application.
  8. If you are selected for the job, come to the Career Center in Campus Center 202A to complete an Employment Eligibility Verification Form (aka: I9). You will need your social security card or birth certificate, and a picture ID issued by a government agency. If you have one, a passport will also be sufficient. If you are an International student, you must first obtain work clearance from the International Students' Advisor.
  9. Tax and payroll forms are completed and maintained by your employing department.
