Student Worker

Gavilan College offers a variety of opportunities for part-time student employment. On-campus employment provides a practical way for students to earn money while gaining valuable work experience and transferable skills, build up resume, and to learn valuable time management skills.

It is also a great way to become engaged in the campus community. Students in good standing are eligible to be hired for a variety of paid on-campus jobs, all without compromising their education by providing flexible work schedule that works around classes.

The District may employ students on a part-time basis outside of the classified service. A student enrolled in 6 or more units per semester may work part-time as a student employee for no more than 20 hours per week during the spring and fall academic semesters. A student employee may work up to 24 hours per week during the summer session, and when school is not in session (winter break, spring break). Students must complete the employee’s pre-employment processing before beginning employment. The Human Resources Department determines the student hourly pay rates. The CalWORKs Program determines the CalWORKs Work Study hourly pay rates. CalWORKs Work Study Program: Students in the CalWORKs Program must be enrolled in 6 credit units or 6 noncredit equivalent hours. Students in the CalWORKs Program may work up to 29 hours per week during the summer session, and when school is not in session (i.e. winter or spring break).
