On-Campus Jobs
For many, acquiring an on-campus job is at the top of their priority list. However, navigating a balanced academic, social, and financial life on campus can be difficult. Here are a few tips intended to aid you on your job search and balanced student life.
FGLI students seeking employment opportunities are encouraged to join the FGLI Facebook group to stay updated with announcements from peers.
Search for various student employment opportunities through the Yale Student Jobs website, and apply to a wide range of jobs you are interested in. Do not become discouraged if you do not hear back from employers right away, as various students are applying at the same time. If this persists, email the employer directly showing your interest in the job.
Many jobs will require you to submit a resume alongside the standard questionnaire, if you need help with your resume, check out the Office of Career and Strategies' advice for resume building.
Academic work should always be your top priority while at Yale, for this reason working up to 10 hours per week seems to offer the best balance for most students. Attend the Academic Strategies workshop on Time Management in order to learn more tips about planning both your academic and paid work ahead of time. For more tips, see the YCC's Student Jobs Handbook created in May 2017.

1stGenYale is pausing the program for summer 2025. While we would have liked to offer this unique support for first-gen low-income Yale students again, sadly, we do not have the capacity or resources to run the program as volunteers at this time. We will continue to explore options for 2026 summer. In the meantime, continue to go to OCS for internships information.
