Hiring Instructions

For those hired for pay:

1. If you don't have an I-9 employment verification filed with Rice University, you'll need to get one. The Baker Institute's administration team can help. Ask Ed to be taken downstairs to see Giovanna or Christine.
2. Log in to Esther and complete a SPAF (Student Personnel Action Form) - just search for it and it comes up pre-populated. Print out the completed form and return it to Ed or to the finance office downstairs. Unless instructed to the contrary, put "Research Assistant for the McNair Center" in the job title/description.
3. If you haven't already set yourself up for direct deposit, you can do that through Esther.

Social Science Internship

Social science students with a declared major, who have not previously taken SOSC421, may take SOSC421 and gain graded (i.e., A) 3 general degree credits for an internship with the McNair Center. The interns must work at least 10hrs a week for at least 8 weeks, and cannot receive other compensation for their efforts. Students selected for 3 credit internships must read the syllabus document, and complete the online intern agreement. The program is administrated by the Social Sciences Gateway office. As a part of the program the student must complete two one-page written descriptions of the internship and one self-evaluation. The center's director will provide two additional evaluations, and a grade.
