Student Employment Opportunities
Northeastern Illinois University offers employment opportunities to NEIU students (undergraduate and graduate) to assist in meeting education-related expenses, acquire practical interpersonal skills, gain career-related experience or gain networking experience through community service. Positions provided by the Federal Work Study Program are based on need demonstrated through an approved financial aid application. Other University jobs through the Student Aide Program are open to all students. To maintain eligibility to work in either program, a student must be enrolled at NEIU for at least half time (6 credit hours) and have confirmed registration for the current term. All jobs are posted with the appropriate contact information for the student to initiate the interview and hiring processes.
