University opens job shop for students
Posted on 9 September 1999
The unit is University-funded and therefore free to both employers and students. Staff at UniJobs will help students find jobs (anything from 1 hour to 15 hours a week) in a huge variety of companies in the York area.
Employers stand to benefit too. They will have easy access to a large group of students with diverse skills and flexible working hours.
"Many York employers need talented temporary and part-time workers and many students need to have part-time jobs to supplement their income," said Claire Rees, director of the University's Careers Service. "We are delighted to offer this service, which will help both the local community and our students. It is yet another way in which the University can help prepare students for the world of work."
"UniJobs wants to hear from employers who need flexible, intelligent, part-time staff," said UniJobs manager Eleanor Sharp. "There are no advertising or recruitment costs."
UniJobs will be open during term-time. Employers and students can contact Eleanor Sharp on telephone 01904 432687 or by email on unijobs@york.ac.uk
