Campus Dining student employment incentives

Posted by on Thursday, September 30, 2021 in Uncategorized.

In an effort to support staffing needs across its network of 18 dining halls, markets, and cafes, Vanderbilt Campus Dining is pleased to announce a series of new initiatives to drive increased student employment.

In support of these efforts, the following changes will be implemented for both current and prospective student employees.

  • Wage Increase: All undergraduate student workers will receive a pay increase from $12 to $13 an hour beginning Sunday, October 3rd.
  • Employment Referral: Any current student employee who refers another student to apply to work with Campus Dining will receive $20 in meal money. Students will receive the meal money once the referral: 1) officially accepts the position; 2) completes all new hire paperwork; and 3) begins working.
  • Student Employee of the Month Program:  Campus Dining leadership will nominate a “Student Employee of the Month” at each location based on the following criteria: positive attitude, punctuality, and above-and-beyond work results.  An overall winner will be selected on the last business day of the month and announced on social media, and will receive $20 in meal money. This program will begin in October.

Vanderbilt Campus Dining employs both undergraduate and graduate students in a variety of roles.  With flexible scheduling, on-the-job training, and a great working environment, Campus Dining is a great choice for many students seeking part-time employment.  For more information, email Olivia Farley at oliva.a.farley@vanderbilt.edu or visit Campus Dining’s student employment page.
