Thank you to all of the supervisors, hiring managers, and students across campus for being patient and staying in contact as we’ve navigated upgrading the student employee hiring process.

Student Employment & Spring 2024

  • If a student is already hired and working, no action is needed.
  • If you have a Student Employment Agreement currently going through the approval process, you will finish out that process. [The last day the SEA was accepted was March 6, 2024.]
  • The Student Employment Portal is officially launched and can be access through OnePort by navigating to the ‘Employment’ tab –> ‘Student Employment.’
    • If you get an error message, please clear your browser’s cookies (how to clear cookies) and try accessing the Portal again.
  • Any new hires or hire updates (such as the fund number the student is paid from) must be processed through the Student Employment Portal.
    • Please Note: Supervisors must share expressed written approval from their respective VC/Dean/Director with Student Employment before a new job posting or Hire Request is processed/approved.

Student Employment & Fiscal Year 2025

  • FY25 Student Employment is under review. All student employment hiring for FY25 will require final approval by the respective VC/Dean/Department Lead.
  • To proactively gather information on student employment needs campus-wide, Cate Marshall (Associate Director for Student Employment Engagement) is actively meeting with supervisors and departments.
    • If you supervise or support student employment, please schedule a time to meet with Cate through this link.
    • If you don’t see a time that works, please reach out to Cate via email (studentemployment@unca.edu) to set up your meeting.
    • These meetings can be 1-on-1 or with a team/department.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out to studentemployment@unca.edu if you have any questions. Resources and guides will become available throughout the semester, some of which will be informed by any questions received.
