Campus Jobs
Earn while you learn with on-campus employment.
At NIU, campus jobs have more to offer than just a paycheck and a short commute. They provide opportunities to build skills and gain experience that will prepare you for your future career. Having a job during the academic year also allows you to meet new people, work more closely with faculty and staff, and enjoy a flexible schedule.
Almost every department on campus has student employment opportunities, and many are regularly hiring. Check out jobs with Housing, Dining and our Northern Ambassadors.
You can also search for jobs both on and off campus through our free online job board, Huskies Get Hired. Your Z-ID account provides easy access. Along with searching and applying for jobs, you can upload multiple resumes and cover letters, schedule interviews and get career advice.
Career Services also offers one-on-one career counseling and so much more, and career events throughout the year will connect you with employers. Be sure to check out our many types of student employment, from federal work-study opportunities to internships and more.
