All departments wishing to hire student employees will need to register with CareerConnect powered by Handshake to post your position.
Positions must be posted for a minimum of 3 days and a minimum of 3 candidates should be interviewed before the position can be filled. This allows everyone an equal opportunity to apply for positions. CareerConnect will collect all resumes for student positions.

Extra Help positions are governed by the State Universities Civil Service System (SUCSS). Extra Help information is provided by the SUCSS office, and can be found on their website.
Extra Help positions are temporary positions in which the work is intermittent, casual or emergent in nature. These positions can be requested by the department submitting a job description and position request form to Human Resources
Length of service awards acknowledge full time service to the University of Illinois Springfield beginning at five years of service, in five year increments. UIS hosts a program each spring to honor retirees and to recognize faculty and staff with service awards. Employees with ten years of service and up are presented with pins and gifts at the event.
Job audits are requested when the duties and responsibilities of a position need to be changed from those listed on the position description due to major additions of job duties or responsibilities.
In the past, some departments allowed terminating employees to extend their date of termination to some point beyond their actual last day of employment by utilizing vacation leave benefits. This was done so that the employee could remain a University employee and could, therefore, continue to receive State of Illinois benefits. It is not an acceptable HR or business practice to retain as active employees with the University any persons who are no longer providing services to the University.
