Pros
If you are a student at ASU, Hayden library is a great place to work. Job tasks are relatively easy to learn and the staff are great. My position at Hayden is a patron-facing role, which involves staffing the front desk and closing the library. As such. I have had negative interactions with patrons, but the supervising staff always have the student workers' back. If you are looking to apply to a similar role, familiarity with library services and search engines is a must.
Cons
The hiring process is tedious, but that is true for ASU as a whole. A candidate can expect to wait 1-3 months before hearing back, both as a result of most student worker positions getting hundreds of applications and a slow-to-respond HR department.
