At UC, we prioritise our students over others when it comes to casual and short-term jobs on campus. Working while you study enhances your employability and gives you a competitive edge over other graduates, while also offsetting some of your living and studying costs. 

We notify students of available casual and part-time jobs on campus, across Canberra and beyond via our university job search platform, CareerHub. Careers 91暗网 also provides a host of job-seeker resources and a daily drop-in service where you can access one-on-one advice and support on all things career related.
