Student Employment Hiring Procedures

Procedures for Hiring

The hiring process for the 2007-2008 academic year begins April 1, 2007. Students must do three things before they can secure a position on campus.

1.
    

Students must have an award letter from the Office of Financial Aid. Students must submit a completed FAFSA for the office to produce an award. Students should do this as soon as possible since it takes the federal processing center a number of weeks to process the FAFSA and send the results to the college. Georgia residents that have never received the Georgia Tuition Equalization Grant in the past must also submit the online GTEG application.

2.
    

Incoming students must submit the non-refundable $200 deposit.

3.
    

Students can check here for position availability. Incoming students can secure employment in the spring for the fall semester. Supervisors can only hire incoming students that show their financial aid award letter.

4.
    

Supervisors complete a Work Authorization Form for each student (new or returning). Incoming students can secure employment in the spring for the fall. Students that have not worked for the college before or who have a change in marital status must complete tax forms in the Business Office before they will be given authorization to work.  Students may not begin working until the supervisor has received an authorization card from the Office of Human Resources indicating that the student is authorized to do so.
   
5.
    

Students must complete employment paperwork prior to working. This applies if this is your first time employed by the college or if there is a gap of more than a year since you worked as a student employee. Bring your completed employment and tax forms, Student Employment Form, Georgia Withholding Form,  Federal Withholding Form,  and Student Employment Expectation Form, your social security card (required), and two items from the Identification List to the business office. Doing this as soon as you have a tentative job offer will avoid delays in the approval to begin work.

6.
    Important things to know once you begin work:
