When on the hunt for the perfect university job, why not consider some of the following…
Retail. (pay between $19 – $22)
Business and consumerism is paramount to economic sustainability, so positions within retail areas like store assistants are regularly required. And, since these offer part-time or casual hours, and often weekends too, such flexible positions are a handy option for students.
Private tutor. (pay between $18 – $40)
According to the Australian Bureau of statistics (ABS) there were 3,750,973 school students within Australia between 2014 and 2015. So, it’s little wonder that the need for tuition or private educational assistance is in demand, whether it’s ensuring a student meets the requirements of their current curriculum or helping them excel to a higher potential.
Barista and waiting work. (pay between $18 – $22)
Once again the flexibility within these roles are a huge appeal to students, and while the rates average between $18 and $22 hourly, public holiday and weekend pay mean students can earn as much as double their hourly rate in the same time.
Call centre work. (pay between $21 – $38)
This is another job that is extremely prominent amongst students. Many call centres offer short, succinct shifts with the option to work mornings, during the middle of the day and evenings, so once again the flexibility is a huge attraction for students.
Baby sitting and child minding. (pay between $17 – $25)
Besides the decent hourly rates, between $17 and $25 plus any tips, babysitting also provides a position that encourages growth in leadership skills, responsibility, time management and of course development in domestic skills.
Uber/ Deliveroo. (pay between $20 – $45 excluding outgoing expenses)
With the influx of consumerism becoming increasingly dependent on speed, innovation and convenience it’s no surprise that companies like Deliveroo, which offers food delivery on the fly and Uber, a private driving service, have found their way into the Australian job market.
