Further, UB accepts no responsibility or liability for safety, wages, working conditions, or other aspects of off-campus employment; all such employment arrangements are at the user’s sole risk. Students/applicants are urged to use their own discretion and exercise good judgment, caution and common sense when applying, interviewing or following up on a position or inquiry for employment.

Please note: The University of Bridgeport Career Development Office does not give your UB e-mail address or contact information directly to outside entities. However, if you have opted in on Handshake for your resume or other aspects of your profile to be visible to employers, then employers will be able to contact you directly from the information provided. With that in mind and in an abundance of caution, you may not want to list your physical address on your resume.
