Talent Center, the University's online employment system, lists current employment opportunities for Pitt students.

Two types of student opportunities are available via Talent Center: positions available to any enrolled student and positions available only to Federal Work Study (FWS) students. FWS students receive federal funding as part of their financial aid package. If you have questions about FWS funding, please visit the Office of Admissions & Financial Aid website.

Students may work no more than 20 hours per week during the academic year (fall and spring terms). During the summer term or University recess periods, students may work no more than 37.5 hours per week. Opportunities are available to full-time or part-time Pitt students who are enrolled in an ongoing course of study and taking at least six (6) credits worth of classes.
