Workforce Recruitment Program

WHAT IS THE WORKFORCE RECRUITMENT PROGRAM?

The Workforce Recruitment Program (WRP) is an employment recruitment program for college students with disabilities in search of local and national summer jobs/full-time employment with federal agencies and private sector employers. 

An eligible student:

  • has a disability (documentation of disability must be on file with the Services to Students with Disabilities Office)
  • is a United States citizen
  • is enrolled in a degree program on a substantially full-time basis (unless the severity of the disability precludes the student from taking a sustantially full-time load) OR
  • graduated with a degree in December 2011 or more recently

A federal recruiter will be on campus on October 17, 18 & 19, 2012, to screen a limited number of eligible Sac State students interested in this employment opportunity.
