Tips and hints

• Ads that are informative about the employer, have a clear job description and selection criteria get better results. Avoid using discriminatory or insensitive language. Visit the NSW EEO website for information.
• We do not screen applicants, so it is suggested that if you wish to confirm someone's status as a University of Sydney student ask them to bring their photographic Student ID Card to the interview.

How long will my ad be active for?

The default closing date for casual jobs ads is two weeks from the posting date. All casual jobs can be extended for a maximum of one month from the initial posting date. You can extend your job ad’s closing date through the Employer Database. Log in to the Employer Database to extend your job ad.

Closing job ads

When your vacancy is filled you can log in to the Employer Database to close the job ad. This will automatically deactivate the ad so that it will no longer be visible to students.
