Posting On-Campus Jobs

If your office has any student employment openings for the upcoming semester, please post the position(s) on Handshake at your earliest convenience. To edit the application and start/end dates for a previously posted position: Go to Jobs; Owner; Status; then click Closed and Apply. We plan to email students about the available positions before the semester begins so they can apply. We ask that departments post all on-campus jobs, so it is equitable for all students to see and apply to all positions. If you haven’t created a Kutztown University department account to post your positions, please go to Join Handshake and create an employer account (i.e., Kutztown University: Career Development Center). Instructions for creating your department account can be sent upon request. If you have any questions, please contact cengeri@kutztown.edu.
