Job Bank FAQ for Employers

Most employers with a physical business address in the Austin metro area and part-time positions to fill (less than 30 hours per week) can post jobs on the job bank. In summer, full-time positions (30+ hours per week) with employers located outside the Austin metro area are accepted.

Staffing agencies and employers or individuals that require students to work in a private residence are not allowed access to the job bank. We reserve the right to refuse service to employers that do not support the interests of the University.

Jobs that require the student to work in a private residence or home office, commission only jobs, jobs that require students to purchase a kit or pay a fee before starting work, unpaid jobs, very short-term jobs (unless holiday/seasonal), jobs for flyer distributors, and fall/spring jobs located outside the Austin metro area are not allowed on the job bank. Contact the University’s student newspaper, The Daily Texan, to post these types of jobs.

Any position that requires the student to work in a private residence cannot be accepted per guidelines governing job bank operations, established to help mitigate risk to our students. Contact the University’s student newspaper, The Daily Texan, to post such positions.

Regulations require we report placement statistics to the federal government at the end of the fiscal year therefore we require employers to log in to the job bank after hiring a student, click Submit Placement Info, and provide hire information. Failure to submit placement information will result in the inactivation of the employer’s record, which means they will no longer be allowed access to the job bank.
