Human Resources provides hiring advice

A special hire is defined as the hiring and payrolling of a candidate identified and supervised by a department for a short term, temporary, one-time only assignment through the Temporary Services Program (TSP). The employee is terminated at the completion of his/her assignment. All University policies and Temporary Service's application of those policies apply.

A summer hire is the hiring and payrolling of a University graduating senior (no longer eligible through the Student Employment Office); or a non-University student identified and supervised by a department for a short-term, temporary, one-time only assignment through the Temporary Services Program. The employee is terminated at the completion of his/her assignment. All University policies and Temporary Service's application of those policies apply. Departments intending to hire students from other institutions or wishing to hire University students who will graduate in May will need to coordinate the hiring process through Employment Services or Temporary Services. For those graduating, the last day they will be eligible to be paid through Student Payroll is May 28.

Departments have two options:

• Process a 700/600 form and send it to Employment Services Office and indicate whether a candidate has been identified. Job posting requirements will be waived since positions are for the summer only. Hiring rates for these positions will be kept consistent with the University Student Employee Job and Wage Classification System. Students working in the Hospital or a department requiring a health assessment and a drug and alcohol screen must be scheduled for both before they can begin work.
• Contact the TSP Office with the identified candidate. TSP will set up an appointment with the individual in order to get the necessary paperwork (This needs to happen before they work). If a 2-3 account number will be utilized, an authorization approval form signed by the appropriate director's liaison, as well as a signature from the Finance Office will be required before the individual may begin work. No health assessment will be required. The TSP Office can be reached at x5-7873 Monday through Friday, between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m.

The Employment Services Office and Temporary Services Program Office will not be accepting applications for summer-only applicants.
