Student Hiring Manager FAQs

How do I know if my student worker is a new hire or a rehire?

Hiring managers will need to log into WaveWorks and go to their requisition. Once in the requisition, open the applicants. Applicants who are existing employees will have a small notebook icon to the right of their name. You can also click on the applicant's name and their employment status will be listed above their name.

At what point can my student worker start working?

Students can begin working once they have completed their hiring journey. If they are a new employee, they can begin working but will need to complete their direct deposit and state and federal tax forms to be paid.

I'm hiring a student on a Service and a Non-Service required Stipend. Can I submit both on the same transaction?

Non-Service required stipends are no longer processed through HR. Please reach out to Student Accounts for guidance on creating a Non-Service required (NSR) stipend. Hiring managers should create a job offer for the student with "$0" in the hourly salary. Once the assignment is approved, go in and submit an Individual Compensation Plan for the stipend payments.

If a student is no longer working within my department, do I need to terminate their student assignment?

Yes. Hiring managers should perform a monthly cleanup of their student workers and terminate all inactive students.

How do I hire a non-Tulane student working through an affiliate program?

All non-Tulane students working through an affiliated program will need to be hired through a requisition. For more information, please reach out to Student Employment.
