With a few clicks of your keyboard and some Google-fu, the list below will be able to help you get connected to positions right here on campus.
Leads UWaterloo: Using your Learn login, this website will provide you with information on most jobs and volunteering positions on campus.
UW Athletics: If you’re a Warrior at heart and want to spread school spirit, UW Athletics is a great way to get involved. They hire regularly for referees, scorekeepers, instructors and more.
