Work Study and Student Employment

Work study is a need-based financial aid award that is available to those who have completed a FAFSA for the current year. Work study is not applied directly to your student account. Instead, you are hired on for a job and will receive a paycheck for your hours worked. The Federal and State Work Study programs give you the opportunity to work a flexible job while you are attending college classes.

Some positions are also available to those who do not qualify for Work Study. Those positions will be marked as “Work Study and Non-Work Study Students May Apply”. If you are unsure if you have Work Study, please contact our Financial Aid department at 509-793-2088.

Current job openings can be found here: https://www.schooljobs.com/careers/bigbend/promotionaljobs

Postings are updated throughout the year, as positions are requested by departments. Each department handles their own hiring and interview processes.

Any positions that are located off-campus are marked and will state where the position is located in the description.

Big Bend accepts applications through our online application system (NEOGOV) and for current open positions only.

You will need:

  • An email account to register and apply. You may obtain a free email account from various providers.
  • A cover letter
  • A resume
