Request for Research Assistant/Student Employee
This form must be submitted BEFORE a job offer is made and any work begins.  During the fall and spring, students can only work up to 20 hours per week. 

There are many steps to hiring a research assistant or student employee and the process may take 2-3 weeks from submission of all paperwork by the student. WE will reach out to the student so they can request employment approval with the Wasserman Center and submit it to the department so appointment paperwork can be sent to payroll.  Completing this form in advance will help expedite the process and identify any issues to be resolved before a job offer is made. Students CANNOT begin work until their paperwork is processed and the position shows up on PeopleSync. DO NOT begin work with students until you receive confirmation that students have submitted their paperwork. 

Students can refer to the following link for more information about On-Campus Employment https://www.nyu.edu/life/resources-and-services/career-development/find-a-job-or-internship/on-campus-employment.html

Please note that Graduate Students must be reappointed every semester and must submit new paperwork. Undergraduates can be hired for the Academic Year, but must be re-appointed during the summer.
If you would like to hire a non-nyu student, they must be hired as an independent contractor and be registered in the NYU IBuy System.
