This Fall, Michigan State University is hiring enthusiastic and dedicated individuals for various positions at their sporting events, including Concession Cashiers, Prep Cooks, Dishwashers, Premium Runners, and Warehouse Support. These roles are integral to smooth operations during game days, ensuring fans and attendees enjoy quality food service, clean facilities, and efficient event logistics. Positions like Concession Cashiers and Prep Cooks require ServSafe certification, emphasizing the importance of food safety and proper handling in providing excellent customer service.
