Hire Personnel

If you will hire a student worker, GRA, hourly staff, and/or salaried staff, please complete the appropriate section below, and email the form to Rebecca Torres  (r_w124@txstate.edu) no later than August 1 (for Fall hires) or  December 15 (for Spring hires).

Important Personnel Information

Always ensure that your hiring aligns with the funder-approved budget.

Please note that your preferred start date is not guaranteed. Your preferred start date may also not align with University payroll deadlines. Should this be the case, the wages the employee earns that fall outside of the University payroll deadlines will default to the next payroll cycle.

It is against University policy for an employee to hold hourly and salaried positions concurrently. If you have an employee in an hourly or salaried position, and they are changing to the opposite payroll type, this change cannot occur in the same month. The new position must begin at the start of a new month.
