Education at the institute is fast and gradually students begin to think about where they will earn money. It is almost impossible to live off one scholarship, so you should start working as early as possible.
First of all, it is necessary to determine whether it will be earnings in the specialty or in some other area. The second option may sometimes even be preferable, since employers do not always take students with incomplete higher education, not wanting to waste time on their education. At the same time, while studying full-time, students simply do not have the opportunity to work full-time, so the easiest solution is to find a job that does not require special qualifications. Of course, this can also be a low-paid activity, but without the first small step, it is virtually impossible to take a leading position in the future. To find a job, you should write your resume competently by posting it on several specialized websites. An additional option would be to contact the recruiting agencies of the city or attend various job fairs. Do not forget to search for advertisements with the help of newspapers, as most of the students manage to get jobs in the service industry. Numerous catering establishments, retail stores all the time require a staff consisting of young and energetic employees who require work experience: waiters, bartenders, managers. In addition, young people can get a job as promoters, security guards, loaders. The vacancies of janitors, auxiliary workers, cleaners and watchmen are constantly open. It is quite easy for students of philological faculties to find work as teachers and translators during their studies. And in the summer, children's recreation camps and student groups open their doors for everyone. Of course, you should try to get a job in your specialty. This is harder to do. Regardless of whether you graduated from the institute or not, it is necessary to draw up a competent and detailed portfolio that reveals all your experience. Even if you have not yet worked in your specialty, most likely you have completed projects of scientific or creative research, certificates and prizes for participating in competitions in the field of the profession you studied. You can ask for help from teachers who will help you write a letter of recommendation describing your achievements during the training. All collected documents must be folded into one folder and attached to the resume. It is also desirable that there are electronic versions of them for the convenience of posting on the network. Employers on specialized sites on the Internet are looking specifically at those who, in addition to a well-written resume, also post a detailed portfolio on their profile. Follow student events during your studies. From time to time, universities hold special career days in which students can meet with employers and discuss plans for further collaboration. In addition, almost every university has a special department for student employment. If you have completed or are still doing an internship in one of the city institutions, then this is a great chance to meet potential employers, establish yourself and secure the necessary connections. There is always a chance that you will be in demand, and the employer will wish to continue business relations with you on a contractual basis. If you still did not manage to get a job using your work book, do not worry. You can get money by working as a tutor or by helping to write theses and term papers. Do not exclude work via the Internet as a freelancer. On the vastness of the network, you can find a large number of resources and private customers who require the services of copywriters, designers and programmers.
