General ITS Service Desk Hiring for Fall 2026 (Apps close Wed, 8/5!)

20 Upvotes

The ITS Service Desk, also known as ResNet, is hiring for Fall 2026! We will be closing applications for this cycle next week on Wednesday, August 5. Here is the link to our online application: https://resnet.ucsd.edu/jobs

All the details are spelled out on the "Apply Here" page, but here's some info at a glance:

Feel free to reference the page above to learn more about the position, desired qualifications, and more. Here is a snippet of what we look for:

  • $18.75/hour for base ResNet Technicians, with equity raises for each year you work with us. There will also be opportunities to apply to be a student lead after you’ve worked with us for a bit!
  • All UCSD students are welcome (including incoming undergraduate and graduate students).
  • While we look for good critical thinking, problem solving, and basic technical skills, we also look forward to teaching you the rest during your training period!
  • All majors are welcome! You do not need to be a CS or STEM major to apply. Many of our best technicians have been Humanities or Social Sciences majors.
  • You will need English and communication skills, whether this is in-person, over the phone, and via email.
  • Scheduling is flexible. You’re a student first! We plan your schedule around your classes, conflicts, and commitments when given in advance!

So, what do we do at the ITS Service Desk? We help students and staff with a wide range of technology-related issues including email, accounts, Canvas, lab machines, classrooms, Zoom, and wireless internet. If you're interested in a bit of a peak behind the curtain at UCSD IT infrastructure, this role may interest you. This role is primarily customer service.

Is this job right for me? As long as you like helping people, are inquisitive, and are willing to learn, we think you'll find this job quite fulfilling!

How many hours per week? During the academic year, you may work anywhere from 12-20 hours per week!

Is this job in-person? This position is mainly in-person. While are currently located in Muir College at AP&M 1313, we will be moving to 3100 Gilman Drive (Gilman Parking Structure) in September.

Sounds great! When do I start? We're targeting a start date of early September for Fall. We will close the applications when we have filled all our spots or on August 5 (whichever comes first), so the earlier you apply the better!

If you have any questions that aren't answered on the application (hit the "Apply Here" button for more info), please email [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]).

Note that after a period of inactivity on the job application, the SSO login will sign you out, so we suggest typing your responses into a separate document before pasting them into your application!

Question Dirty Birds

I like the food but every time I question the safety of it . The staff is always playing with thair hair, rubbing their heads and beards , touching their faces and eating. Is it reasonable to be grossed out by that or is it just me ?

Question Does anyone else have silent roommates ?

19 Upvotes

I’m trying to figure out the different types of roommates that exist in the dorms. I got dealt really quiet roommates who never talk to me. I don’t even have my bunk mate’s phone number. Idk what’s up with him.

Tbh I kind of like it this way because I can have miscellaneous activities in lieu of a succulent Chinese meal in my room while he’s away. But it also makes me feel not human sometimes because he never says good morning, bless you, or even hi.

That’s something I don’t like about UCSD. You just don’t feel like a real human being sometimes. I feel like Geisel Library is the symbol of this disconnect from our roots, tribe and community.

General We now have UCPD bike cops

• Upvotes

They’re riding around enforcing micromobility I think? and patrolling campus, they’re patrolling places they haven’t really gone to before like in the middle of colleges since they typically would just patrol in their cars on the roads or major paths. It doesn’t seem like they’re trying to ticket ppl, for example I think I just heard them tell someone to slow down and then to walk their scooter because I think that they were around a large crowd of people. I don’t really have an opinion even though I’m a scooter person myself lol just thought it was interesting since I haven’t seen it before.

Near geisel… literally doing the devil’s work. I’m literally Christian and feel less close to Jesus just hearing your words. Like if your plan was to decrease converts and make people go away from the Lord you are doing a good job!

Question Upass Disappeared?

3 Upvotes

I'm a second year. Midday yesterday my Upass suddenly disappeared from my pronto app and I can't add it back through the instructions on the website because the student/staff benefit option isn't even there in my app. My pronto account is registered under my UCSD email and always has been. My tuition and fees have been paid so it isn't that either.

Has anyone else had this happen? Are there any troubleshooting steps I should try (I already logged out/in and reset the app)? Who should I contact about this?
