Unitemps is the University’s recruitment service for part-time, casual and temporary work on campus and with local businesses. A service created just for you, it’s the ideal place to find work that fits around your studies and other commitments. We asked four students to tell us what they love about working with Unitemps.
1. Meet new people
“I would encourage students to sign up for temporary jobs with Unitemps not just to support their finances, but it’s also an opportunity to meet and interact with new people and gain experience.”
