Post Student Employee Positions in PCO

PCO is DU’s central internship and job board for students. It’s a one-stop shop and students will find student employment positions, internships, & full-time opportunities on the site. They can also make appointments with their career advisor and register for career & professional development events. This board is a great tool to advertise your positions.



Create Your Account & Post Positions

  1. Go to PCO.
  2. If you’ve created a profile previously, skip to step 4 and login to your account. If you have not created an account previously, select “sign up for an account”.
  3. Enter your contact information and create an account password. When finished, select “create account”.
    • If you are an on-campus employer, use the following naming convention in the “Employer” field: “University of Denver – DU – name of your department/division”. For example, “University of Denver – DU – Accounting Department.” Many department names will auto-populate, so if your department appears, please select the auto-populated department name rather than making a new one!
    • If you are an off-campus employer, select off-Campus Childcare, Off-Campus Landscape Maintenance, etc. Select the one that best fits your position.
