Job Location & Development (JLD)

The Job Location & Development (JLD) Program expands off-campus job opportunities for currently enrolled SSC students regardless of financial need. It encourages, but doesn’t limit, you to participate in community service, so jobs may be with profit or nonprofit employers. JLD gives you the opportunity to support yourself, help with educational expenses, and gain valuable experience in today's workplace. You can enhance your major and your resume by working in a related discipline.

If you accept a JLD community service job, you’ll improve the quality of life for community residents, particularly low-income individuals, via jobs in health care, childcare, literacy training, education (including tutoring), housing and neighborhood improvement, rural development, and community disabilities. The majority of off-campus jobs available to students through the JLD Program are in those fields. However, opportunities in the following areas are also available:

  • Accounting/Banking
  • Administrative Work
  • Arts Media & Entertainment
  • Childcare
  • Crime Prevention/Law
  • Customer Service
  • Education
  • Health & Human Services
  • Hotel/Restaurant
  • Information Technology
  • Manual Labor
  • Office Support
  • Politics
  • Retail
  • Sales & Marketing
  • Science
  • Social Work
  • Sports, Fitness, & Leisure
  • Travel
  • Miscellaneous
Jobs offered through JLD are posted on the SEO bulletin boards near the Registrar's Office in the Administration Building on North Campus. If you are interested in a particular JLD post, please note and refer to its Job Number when you enquire at the Student Employment Office.
