Saints for Hire is Aquinas College's online job board formerly known as eRecruiting. Career Services posts every job opportunity that comes past our desk on Saints for Hire. The job postings are organized into seven categories for easy searching. Additional details of these positions are also available in our office located in the lower level of the Donnelly Center.
Throughout the academic year, employers will conduct on-campus interviews for qualified candidates. Employers often set up recruiting tables prior to these interviews to give prospective candidates the opportunity to drop off their resumes and learn more about their organization. Upcoming interviews are also widely advertised on campus and in student publications.
Current job postings are available for review in the Resource Library of the Career Services Office. Our extensive bank of job postings includes part-time and full-time opportunities. These opportunities, from local, national and international organizations, are updated on a regular basis.
*Please contact the Career & Counseling Services front desk at (616) 632-2905 for member log in information.
