Student Employment

Virtual Student Employment Fair

Find a Job. Build Your Experience. Get Connected.

Looking for a flexible way to earn money while gaining valuable experience at Xavier?

The Virtual Student Employment Fair, July 27th-31st, is your opportunity to explore available student employment openings, connect with hiring departments, and apply for positions before the academic year begins. Whether you're interested in building your resume, developing professional skills, or using your Federal Work-Study award, the Virtual Student Employment Fair is the best place to start your search.

This fair is the first opportunity that incoming first year students will have to view and apply for positions on-campus.   Most positions will be restricted to first year students with federal work study; however, some positions will be open to all students. Through this virtual fair, students will have an opportunity to log into Workday to view and apply for Fall 2026 on-campus positions and off-campus Community Service Job Program (CSJP)** positions.

Prepare for the Fair

Before the fair begins, students are encouraged to attend the Student Employment Information Session.
