The HR Manager will work with departments to identify the skills necessary for achieving departmental goals, evaluate positions for appropriate title and grade level within the organization, and assist in developing strategies for recruiting and selecting the best personnel while increasing the diversity of the University’s workforce.  The HR Client Managers are also available to support managers in day-to-day supervisory responsibilities, including the performance appraisal process, and to coach managers on employee relations issues.

The Center for Career Education provides a wide range of career development, career education and experiential and entrepreneurial learning experiences to Columbia University students and alumni. The Employer Relations team is dedicated to helping employers, both on Columbia’s campus and off, recruit qualified undergraduates, graduate students and alumni for full- and part-time employment and internships.

All employers can post jobs online through InterviewTrak. Columbia University employers from all campuses are also invited and encouraged to use CCE’s free on-line posting system, ColumbiaTrak, to advertise casual positions. Once positions are entered into the system, they will be viewable by students at the beginning of the next business day.

Finally, departments may hire students through The Federal Work-Study Program, designed to promote part-time employment for students who are in need of earnings to help finance their education. Note: It is mandatory for departments to submit documentation each year to request work-study positions for the upcoming Summer and/or Academic Year program.

Temporary Agencies

After a competitive bidding process, a number of agencies were selected to provide services to the Columbia community.  For a full list of selected agencies, call your local Human Resources office or go on the web to http://cpmcnet.columbia.edu/dept/purch/  and click on the “Contracts” button.

The temporary service agencies under contract with Columbia University will release temporary employees at no charge in the event that a department wishes to hire them as a temporary or regular employee on a full or part-time basis. To ensure that no fee is charged in these instances, the agency must receive written notice of the intent to hire prior to an offer being extended.
