Types of non-academic appointments

Use this information to help you determine if an employee should be MITemps (nextSource) staff or an MIT employee. 

Short-term hires are engaged through the MITemps program, managed by our vendor partner, nextSource. This provides a cost-effective, efficient way of onboarding and managing this population of the MIT workforce.

How to use MITemps

• Use VNDLY to request, hire, manage, and approve time for all your MITemps temporary staffing needs. Please submit your request at least 3-7 business days in advance of when you need the worker to start.

  You can sign in using Single Sign On (SSO) through MIT Touchstone. MITemps hiring managers do not need a password.

• Need help accessing VNDLY? Contact the nextSource program team at mit@nextsource.com.

• Learn more about working with MITemps or get more help with VNDLY.

• For temporary employees employed through a vendor partner, MIT managers work with the company to end, extend, or otherwise change a temporary employee's assignment with MIT. The company will communicate directly with the temporary employee.
• If the individual is authorized to work onsite, DLCIs must end authorized access at the end of the temporary employee's engagement.
