Student Hourly - Create Offer to Hire Student

When you're ready to move forward with a hire you must change the student finalist(s) status(es) to "Create Offer." The student(s) must have applied through the Student Jobs Platform to complete this step.

Instructions to Create a Job Offer

  1. Review the Student Jobs Platform training materials under the "Offers" drop-down menu.
  2. Follow the instructions on the Student Jobs Platform to create the job offer.
  3. Follow the ASU - specific instructions below when completing the job offer. 

ASU-Specific Instructions

The following fields on the student job requisition have ASU-specific requirements. Please review each for guidance on what needs to be inputted to create a job post for a Student Hourly Employee. Be sure to complete all required sections including all sections referenced below, and pay special attention to ASU-specific details as outlined in this KB.

Division/Department/SubDepartment:
  • This should match the information/UDDS you provided when creating the job requisition
  • Consult with ASU if you are unsure what to select from the drop down menus.

Working Job Title

  • Enter "Supervisor Last Name - Division Acronym - Job Title" as the working title - you may need to abbreviate
    • Example: Smith-OHR-Front Desk Asst
Funding String
  • ASU requires to receive the funding information before the hire is processed into HRS.
  • Consult with ASU if you are unsure.

Start Date:

  • Please note that ASU requests 10 business days to process a hire before they start. Processing time is dependent on timely response by the student to CBC initiation (if applicable) and online offer. 
  • Please enter the anticipated start date you have in mind. ASU may adjust the start date after review and will communicate any adjustments with you.
  • If the student requires a Criminal Background Check, this may add to processing time. If the position requires a CBC and you have not yet requested one, refer to the Request a Criminal Background Check KB to submit a request.
  • UW-Madison requires employees to complete I-9 requirements in their first three days of employment. If your student is unable to complete I-9 requirements in the given timeline they will not be eligible to work with UW-Madison until the I-9 requirements are completed.

End date: 

  • ASU's best practice is to assign an Expected Job End Date (EJED) for Student Hourly positions at the time of hire. If there is not a scheduled date for the position to end, you will be asked to provide the approximate month/year the student is expected to graduate or the work is expected to end. 

Hours

  • May work up to 40 hours per week during breaks and summer but not to exceed an average above 30 hours per week or 130 hours per month

  • Some international students, depending on their visa status, may be prohibited from working more than 20 hours per week during the Fall and Spring semesters while school is in session
