Due to outdated listings, certain article links have been deactivated.

FINDING WORK

Whether you are applying in person or online you’ll need a resume and, in most cases, a cover letter. BPI supports you in developing both of these with one-on-one coaching. If your documents are not up to date reach out to Matt Jones immediately to get started: mjones@bard.edu

BPI maintains personal contacts at many of the places listed here. Do your application justice by allowing us to help you prepare with inside tips. 

This list includes remote and in-person opportunities. While we encourage you to try to find remote work until the COVID pandemic is under control, we also understand the need for a source of income.

If you don’t find anything in this list that you are interested in, or you are located upstate or in a different state, please reach out to Matt. Below doesn’t include all the opportunities that might be out there for you.
