As an RCC, you will be given opportunities to develop your technical skills. These technical skills are essential to any career after college. Here’s a list of just some of the areas of technology that you will be exposed to:

  • Computer operating systems (Windows, Mac)
  • Educational software application
  • Malware removal
  • Printer functionality
  • Multimedia

Leadership Opportunities

We promote and encourage the development of leadership skills through the ResNET job experience. As an RCC, you will be given opportunities in many areas to collaborate, research, and learn with staff from ITS, Carolina Housing, The Carolina Gaming Arena, and various student organizations on campus.

Residential Computing Consultants (RCCs) are required to live in specific on-campus ResNET reserved rooms during their tenure. All reserved rooms are air-conditioned.

Placements

ResNET has specific rooms on campus for RCCs to live. Based on population and support needs, RCCs are strategically placed so that the highest level of customer service is provided to the residents. Candidates will be given an opportunity to submit preferences, but they are not guaranteed their top choices.

Candidates who receive an offer have the ability to accept or decline a position before any changes are made to their housing assignment.

Compensation

ResNET RCCs receive a yearly stipend of $7,100 distributed in monthly stipend payments, and the cost of the room will be billed as a double-occupancy room directly on the student account.
