Frequently
Asked Questions
| Question:
Was this the Graduate Resident Assistant position? |
Answer:
Yes. Since many of our apartment residents will be undergraduate
students, we no longer require these positions to be
filled by graduate students. However, as the Manville
and College/Durant apartment buildings are predominantly
or entirely graduate students, students with graduate
student status will be given preference for these locations. |
| Question:
Do I need to be a graduate student to apply? |
| Answer:
No, however as stated above, as the Manville and College/Durant
apartment buildings are predominantly or entirely graduate
students, students with graduate student status will be
given preference for these locations. |
| Question:
What previous residence hall experience is necessary?
|
Answer:
We require one year of previous Residence Hall
Live-In Staff experience or one year of experience living
in the UC Berkeley Graduate Student Apartments (Ida
Louise Jackson House or Manville). |
| Question:
I need some help with my resume - who can I talk to? |
Answer:
We recommend talking with the Career Center
if you're interested in information on resumes. You
can visit their website at http://career.berkeley.edu
or visit at 2111 Bancroft Way (past Oxford Way). The
Career Center is open from 9am to 5pm, Monday through
