At Antelope Valley College, students have the opportunity to earn money while working on campus in many departments. In order for a student to be eligible to work, the student must meet all Academic Eligibility Requirements.

All students applying for the Student Worker Program must apply for Financial Aid by completing a FAFSA. Visit the Financial Aid office for more information or if you have any questions.

Before beginning the hiring process, students must receive a job offer from a department. Students looking for open positions can find them on College Central Network. Once a student has an offer they can notify the Job Placement Center, who will then begin their onboarding process.

Working on campus provides various benefits, such as a flexible schedule built around your classes. It also provides students the chance to be more involved in campus activities, as well as the opportunity to build on-campus relationships with a wider group of people, including faculty, staff and administration.

An additional benefit of being a student worker is the work experience, offering a more practical hands-on approach than a classroom might. In addition, a student worker job provides work history that can be listed on a student’s resume when looking for full-time work after graduation. This will indicate to a potential employer that you have experience in a structured work environment with regular hours, better preparing you for the job market.


How Do I Get Started?

If you have not already started the process to becoming a student worker and are interested in working on campus, please contact our office via:

• Email: jpc@avc.edu

• By visiting the Job Placement Center. The Job Placement Center is located in the SSV bldg., first floor.

How to Find Current On-Campus Jobs

Most student worker opportunities are posted on College Central Network. You may also reach out to different departments on campus, as some may have open positions but have not posted their job yet.

College Central Network (CCN) is our electronic job board, where the student can search for either On or Off campus employment opportunities. Employers can also find students who are looking for work, via the resume the student uploads (this is also an assignment in our canvas course).
