About the role
State of Michigan's MDOT is seeking a Student Assistant to support historians with research, data entry, and filing related to culturally significant resources affected by infrastructure projects.
The role involves researching historic properties, collecting mapping data, organizing materials, and using diverse sources. A valid driver’s license is required, and enrollment in a technical or vocational program is necessary.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
