Onboarding to Offboarding

Training and Orientation

You will receive on-the-job training for your core duties, as well as guidelines in safety and sanitation at the beginning of your employment. Supplemental coursework is contingent upon your job description and will include knife skills training and basic customer service. Content is delivered on the job at your unit, through online modules in BuckeyeLearn and through scheduled in person sessions, like knife skills training. Knife skills in person training is held regularly in the Instructional Kitchen on the lower level of the Ohio Union

Self Disclosure of Convictions 

Per university policy, all current employees are required to self-disclose any criminal convictions within three business days of the conviction. Employees
that fail to disclose criminal convictions or fail to provide accurate details will be subject to corrective action, up to and including termination. 

Transferring

If you are interested in switching to another work location in Dining Services, you can apply online or email dining@osu.edu. You should indicate that you currently work for our department and the manager will contact you if they are interested in conducting an interview. Because we request two weeks notice, you should make this requirement known in your interview and give notice to your current manager immediately if offered the position. If you do not adequately give or fulfill this notice, you may be subject to disciplinary action. 

Ending Employment

In the event you must leave your position, we ask that you provide at least two weeks’ notice. This will assist your manager in replacing your position and is  professional courtesy. Students who do not provide us with this advance notice and/or fail to work their remaining shifts may jeopardize future employment in
Dining Services or the attainment of professional references. 

While student employment has many benefits, it also comes with responsibilities. Students who are terminated for cause, or otherwise violate policies, may be ineligible for future employment. Students in this situation are not automatically discouraged from submitting employment applications; however, past student conduct may be reviewed during the selection process.
