Part-Time & Summer Business Directory

The following is a list of businesses in the Elmwood, Grant and surrounding areas of Buffalo State College. You may want to contact these organizations to inquire about unadvertised openings. Simply call, visit in person or send a cover letter/resume to search for hidden jobs. This is a beginning guide to businesses who may hire Buffalo State College students. It is by no means a complete list of potential employers. Remember, check ORCA for advertised openings.

You don't need a car to have a part-time job. Many of the employers below may be in walking distance or on the NFTA Bus Route, http://metro.nfta.com/Trip/Trip_Planner.asp.

The Career Development Center acts only as a referral service and makes no particular recommendation regarding employers. The Career Development Center is not responsible for safety, wages, working conditions or other aspects of employment. Employers who wish to be added to this directory, please contact the Career Development Center for more information.
