  2. Top 5 Part-Time Jobs for International Students • When you’re studying abroad, you may find that Part-Time jobs can really help pay a few extra bills or fund leisure activities and travel that would have otherwise been outside of your budget. If you’ve been thinking of working whilst studying abroad, you’re not alone as many international students seek employment during their studies. Different countries have different regulations when it comes to work available to international students, so it’s important to check them before applying for jobs.

  3. Internship • It may be possible for you to find an internship with a company relevant to your field of study. Being an intern gives you some much-needed experience and it opens numerous opportunities. Depending on the country and your field of study, it may even be possible for you to be hired by the company once you complete your studies. In any case, an internship will give you a lot of experience relevant for your field of study, so you can see it both as a job opportunity and gaining some valuable experience in your field. Depending on the circumstances, it may be possible for you to receive payment for your internship.

  4. Work at the University • Working on campus is one of the most popular options for international students. In some countries, such as the USA, this is the only work available to international students. There are many different jobs offered on campus though, from working in the cafeteria, to computer centres. Another on-campus opportunity is working for a students’ union. This is a good opportunity to get involved in current issues and to help other students at the university. Depending on the union and their mission, you might be able to help other international students and make their experiences at the university better.

  5. Volunteering • There are numerous volunteering opportunities international students can use to gain experience and meet new people. Being a volunteer is one of the more rewarding and interesting work opportunities and one of the biggest advantages of volunteering is the wide range of positions available. There is more varied work available for volunteers, so chances are that you will be able to choose a role you truly like. There are lots of companies and organisations looking for volunteers, so this is a great way for international students to get involved and gain some much-needed experience. Volunteering also opens up a host of opportunities for international students and it gives you both a work experience and a more varied CV.

  6. Call Centres • Some international students find employment at call centres. This is a good choice for those who are communicative, friendly and wish to develop their language skills. Unlike many other part-time job opportunities for international students, call centre jobs can be well paid. This is important if you seek a job that can significantly contribute to your budget. Also, call centre jobs are not physically demanding, so they are a good choice if you prefer or need an office environment. • On the other hand, working at a call centre can be demanding. You need to possess excellent communication skills and above average language skills. The difficulty of call centre positions varies dramatically, for example telesales positions are amongst the most difficult and pressured opportunities but they often bring commission with each sale, further boosting your income. Working at a customer support centre instead requires excellent knowledge of the products, services and the company you work for.

  7. Restaurants and Bars • There are many jobs offered at the bars, restaurants and cafes in the surrounding towns and cities, and this might be the easiest way for you to find employment. Restaurants are always looking for more help, so chances are that you will be able to find a job relatively easily. You could work as a waiter, bar staff or even in the kitchen, depending on your experience and skills. • This type of job may require good communication skills but there are often no formal requirements when it comes to past work experience. It means you will probably be able to find a job at a restaurant, which might be an excellent opportunity for an international student. This job opportunity will help you build your people skills, improve language and meet new friends.
