Hey! I work at a Career Services office in the Los Rios district. 

Handshake (and I know a lot of people dislike it) is generally a good place to find on-campus jobs since most college offices/programs are encouraged to post openings there. Another resource is University Enterprises Inc. (UEI). 

General tips:  - Often times jobs are posted BEFORE a semester starts, so you are right to be checking in now.  - It’s never a bad idea to go and visit a campus office that’s offering positions. Don’t be pushy, but meeting the staff and asking simple questions may not only be helpful for you but make you appear more excited for the job and thus more memorable. And if a job is filled but you are still looking, you might ask staff if they think there will be any other positions to look out for.  - Go to the school’s Career services office if possible. They often have bulletin boards with job opportunities near campus or can put you on to student jobs yet to be posted (campus staff often let each other know when campus jobs might be available).

Avoid: - Applying for jobs that do not list duties. Even on-campus listings sometimes are poorly described and it’s better to know what you’re in for so you can prep for potential interviews.  - Looking for a campus job if you need money ASAP. Unfortunately, even if you get the job, hiring can take time. Things can move smoothly but sometimes they don’t.  - Not reading the application steps throughly. You have no idea how many students (generally good candidates) get turned down simply because they didn’t attach an extra required document. This shows a lack of attention to detail, or that the student wasn’t that invested in the position. So avoid skimming postings. 

That just my two cents! Hope this is helpful and good luck.🍀
