Cash on Campus - Event Crew Sign-Up

Cash on Campus is proud to launch our newest event crew program, giving students a chance to work at the heart of campus life while earning real‑world experience and cash. Below you’ll find everything you need to know about joining our crew, the roles we’re looking to fill, how the schedule works, and how to sign up.

Why Join the Event Crew?

Working on campus events is more than a paycheck. It offers a unique blend of skills that can boost your résumé and network.

• Team‑building – You’ll collaborate with people from every major, building lasting friendships and professional connections.
• Problem‑solving under pressure – Events rarely run as planned; you’ll learn to adapt quickly and keep guests satisfied.
• Leadership and communication – Whether you’re managing a set or briefing volunteers, you’ll hone skills that employers love.
• Flexible hours – Shift options are designed around class schedules, so you can stay on top of your academics.

In addition, every crew member receives a stipend for each shift they complete, as detailed in our guide to cash on campus. At the end of the semester, you’ll have a portfolio of hands‑on experience that you can showcase to future employers.
