Student Employment

Working off Campus

The Western Illinois University Office of Student Employment acts only as a referral service and makes no particular recommendations regarding employers. We make no representations or guarantees about positions posted by the office. The Office of Student Employment is not responsible for safety, wages, working conditions, or other aspects of off-campus employment. Due to the volume of jobs received by this office, we are unable to research the integrity of each organization or person that lists a job with us. Therefore, you are urged to undertake this responsibility yourself.

WARNING: While the positions listed on this job board are University positions and should be legitimate positions, job seekers should be aware that employment scams do exist and should use common sense and caution when reviewing job opportunities. DO NOT apply for or accept a job that wants to send you a check in advance of being hired or actually working. DO NOT set up a Yahoo Message account to communicate - no reputable employer would ask you to do that. DO NOT buy supplies using your own funds. DO NOT set up an account on Craigslist and do postings at YOUR expense. NEVER send a cash “donation” to a worthy cause in the name of the “employer”. DO NOT APPLY FOR OR ACCEPT ANY JOB THAT WANTS TO SEND YOU A CHECK IN ADVANCE OF BEING HIRED OR ACTUALLY WORKING. THIS IS MOST LIKELY A FRAUD.
