Careers & internships

The Hiring panel

Where companies, campuses, instructors and NSDP post jobs and internships and choose applicants, and how a campus, an instructor or an NSDP admin switches into it.

The Hiring panel is the one place to hire on NSDP. It always acts for your own organisation, worked out from your sign-in: you see and change only your own listings and applicants.

Hiring as an instructor

  • Hire an assistant for your classes, or offer a paid or free internship in your own freelance or agency work.
  • Before your first post: your identity verification must be submitted (as for sending a course for review), and you accept the short NSDP hiring terms on the Hiring dashboard.
  • Listings show Posted by: an NSDP instructor with your name. Only NSDP students and instructors can apply.
  • You see only your own listings and applicants, and you can't apply to a listing you posted.

Switching in and back

  • A campus or an instructor uses the same sign-in: nothing to log in to again.
  • To go back, open Switch panel → Campus (or Teaching) at the top, or the Switch to Campus / Switch to Instructor card at the bottom of the menu.
  • An admin goes back with Admin workspace at the top. The admin Careers screens still show every listing and the review queue; the Hiring panel shows NSDP's own only.
