General Information
Extra-Help positions
may be needed for one day or as long as
six months and can be full or part-time (less than 37.5 hours per week).
The rules of the State Universities Civil Service System do not provide an
opportunity for Extra-Help appointments to automatically be converted into Civil
Service; however, all persons are invited to apply and compete for
permanent vacancies.

positions may apply between
8:30-4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday:

Applicants for Extra-Help employment will often be scheduled to
meet with a Human Resources Representative to assess their skills, experiences,
and interests. Applicants that are
interested in clerical positions will be given a five minute typing test
to determine level of keyboarding skill.
The
Referral and Hiring Process
Departments
with temporary staffing needs notify HR by specifying
the employment category, skills and amount of experience that are
needed. Information gathered during the applicant's screening
interview with HR is matched against the requirements. Selected
applicants may be referred for an individual interview with the hiring
department. Hires may only be made by the Office of Human Resources.
