<p>Just to expand, I think one main perk of being a C.A. (if you are selected) is that you would get guaranteed housing on campus, particularly as an upper-class-student, and don’t have to go through the housing lottery. Although from what some friends who were CAs have told me, it can be also a be a little stressful, depending on which hall you end up being on or the duties you have to do.
Another area that offers jobs is Library and Technology Services. At the listings below, it says hiring at some of them and there will probably be more later. In my experience it can’t hurt to submit the form with your information and you could get contacted later in the year.

Other people I know have (usually as somewhat older students) worked in academic departments in some capacity, others work as assistant teachers at the Lemberg Children’s center (that’s probably a little more on the stressful side), as guides or desk workers at the Rose Art Museum or at the desk by the entrance to the gym, and that’s only a sampling.
There will be a job fair at the beginning of the year to help new students connect with employers on campus.</p>
