Overview

Florida International University’s Sign On is a packet of forms used to complete the hiring process at FIU. External applicants who are selected as finalists in the interview process will be asked to complete an electronic sign on.* Notifications are sent to the email provided in the candidate’s careers.fiu.edu profile.

After these forms are submitted you will receive your Panther ID which will enable you to enroll in benefit options, receive FIU email correspondence, have access to university systems or other resources and receive pay.

Section 110.13 of the Florida Statutes and University policy, mandate that ALL employees participate in the Direct Deposit Program as a condition of employment. The Direct Deposit Form is included in the Sign On Packet.

This packet should be completed prior to employment to expedite your hire process. Pursuant to the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service, all new employees are required to complete and submit the Employment Eligibility Verification (Form I-9), within the first three days of employment.
