Things To Consider For UTK Jobs For Students

By Amelia Buckner


The University of Tennessee has several campuses, and the main campus is located in Knoxville, Tennessee. There are thousands of students who attend the University of Tennessee and many of them have jobs there. Working is often a good way for students to gain valuable experience that can be used for job-hunting after college. It can also help to pay for some of their college expenses, such as tuition, books, room and board. If this interests you, you may want to search for UTK jobs for students.

If you are unable to get a paid internship, you may be able to get an unpaid internship instead. Some other options include getting a part time position in the retail store or a restaurant or cafeteria on campus. This may help you to make ends meet when you need to pay your tuition and room and board. A part-time position may only involve working two or three days a week, so you still have time to study.

The group that arranges work on campus is the Employment unit in the Human Resources Office. Their role is to identify and hire qualified people for any available positions at the University. This office also has a temporary Help Pool for arranging temporary staffing. The Help Pool can also place applicants looking for work experience in a university environment. Undergraduates may want to contact the Human Resources employment unit first about potential work arrangements.

The University will conduct a criminal background check before offering employment to anyone in any position. This is done to protect the University and its employees. It is also makes the campus safer for the students and any visitors. In some cases, this background check will be run through the Department of Homeland Security to verify work eligibility.

Many undergraduates ask if they are entitled to holiday pay as part-time workers. Yes, they are, but students cannot receive the full statutory minimum that full time workers get, which is four weeks every year. However, you can receive a pro-rated amount of paid time off; in particular if you are working two days a week, you will be entitled to eight days a year.

There are many jobs that an undergraduate may want to do on campus. They can work in the University Library or the bookshop. They can wait tables or serve food at one of the food venues around campus as well. These jobs may offer flexible work schedules.

All applicants who are qualified for specific jobs will be evaluated equally without reference to race, national origin, gender, disability or religion. The University has an equal opportunity employment policy.

You may also want to consider freelance work as a means of making money. Students can build up their experience to boost their resume with projects before they graduate. Choose an area that you are good at or that is related to your studies. Freelancing normally does not take up a lot of your schedule, so you can earn money without extensive commitment to a job.
