Looking for a Local Job?


 

Here are some places to look for on and off campus employment:

eRecruiting is a new online tool offered by the Center for Human Development to help connect students with job opportunities.  Simply login at http://umf.erecruiting.com/er/security/login.jsp and search for jobs.

The Center for Human Development has two career counselors on staff.  They can help with your job search and review your resume and cover letter.  Call (207) 778-7034 to make an appointment.

Attend the Job Fair (annually in September), Career Fair (annually in March), and/or the Education Fair (annually in April) on the UMF campus.

The Wilton Career Center has job listings that are updated on a regular basis.  Visit their office at 865 US Rte 2E, Wilton, ME, call (207) 645-5800, or view their website http://www.mainecareercenter.com/

Check the Financial Aid web site for openings on campus (work-study and work initiative) http://financialaid.umf.maine.edu/student_employment.php

Check with the following UMF Departments:  Health and Fitness Center, Computer Center, Facilities Mgmt, ARAMARK. 

Stop in at local businesses and ask if they are hiring.  Use the following link to find local business contact information:  http://www.acinet.org/acinet/employerlocator/ EmpLocatorByLocation.asp?action=location

Contact the recreation departments for Wilton and Farmington for summer work.

Check the Friday edition of the Franklin Journal for job openings or The Daily Bulldog at http://www.dailybulldog.com/index.html

Local job openings are sometimes posted on the bulletin board on the lower level of the Student Center (next to the snack bar) and on the CHD’s bulletin board.

You can also use the bulletin boards and the Franklin Journal to advertise that you are seeking employment in a particular field such as: daycare, house keeping, yard work, etc.

Talk to your friends, classmates and faculty – they are often great resources.

Volunteering & internships can sometimes lead to a job.
