Some students choose to start working before graduation. Additional money and work experience will not hurt, but you need to think about how best to combine study and work without prejudice to yourself.
Instructions
Step 1
If you are getting your first college education and are thinking about part-time work, first consider the opportunity to get acquainted with your future specialty in practice. Some companies are happy to hire part-time students. You will receive not only additional income, but also experience in your profession. After graduating from an institute, university or academy, you can find a job faster. You may be offered a full-time job in your first job.
Step 2
Look through other vacancies if work in the profession you are getting for some reason is not yet possible. The main criterion should not be the level of earnings, but the possibility of a flexible schedule. A part-time job should in no way interfere with your studies. Understand that by getting an education, you are laying the foundation for your future. Think about what will matter in 5 or 10 years: what you got a few thousand more as a student, or what you showed great results during your studies, proved to be the best student and were able to interest the future employer.
Step 3
Try to find a remote job. Maybe you can work over the Internet. There are many specialties that allow you to work from home at any convenient time. This way you will be able to attend lectures and seminars without skipping, have a good rest, and work only when you have free time. During the session, you will have the opportunity to temporarily stop working and concentrate fully on your studies.
Step 4
If you are already employed and decide to pursue further education, your priorities may change depending on the situation. In one case, the individual has an excellent position, good income, and studies only for a diploma or advanced training. Then professional activity should come first. Better to find distance courses or sign up for a weekend group. An evening form of study may also suit you, but here it is important to correctly assess your capabilities. Sometimes a person is physically unable to leave work at a certain time, and sometimes after a busy weekday, there is simply no strength left to study.
Step 5
It happens that a person really does not like work, and in order to completely change the field of activity, he goes to study. If you don't really value your position, look for an opportunity to get an education, focusing on the authority of the educational institution, and not on the convenience of the visit schedule. Remember not to complete tasks during working hours. Take a lunch break or personal time to study. If you enter the correspondence department, your employer will simply be obliged to provide you with study leave for the period of the session. Note that your leave from work should not affect the length of your regular annual leave.
