Employers & Faculty

The Student Employment Office welcomes all employers who are seeking to hire Harvard student workers.

The SEO hosts a robust jobs database which offers Harvard and non-Harvard employers the opportunity to post open positions, search students' resumes, and manage the application process from a central location.

Jobs Database

The Harvard Student Employment Office Jobs Database connects employers with currently enrolled Harvard students across the university. Students who use our database are seeking paid job opportunities that are generally part-time or temporary during the school year and full or part-time during break periods. In order to post job openings, employers must create an account.
