Working while you study is exceptional like Jimmy Johnson once
said “The difference between ordinary and extraordinary is that little
extra.” Australia has a high standard of living that belongs to the highest in
the world, but its living expenses and tuition cost are considerably lower than
United Kingdom and United States, so having a part time job has a big help. It
can support your living expenses while you are studying and also the
opportunity to have a work experience and training in your field of interest,
as well as it compliments your study and living experience. Students who used
student visa are allowed to work for up to 20 hours
per week while your course is in session and

have a wide range of industries and many have part time employment
opportunities, comprise of Tourism, Agricultural, Retail, Hospitality Sales and telemarketing, Administration or Clerical roles and Tutoring. You can also use your existing qualifications and work
experience to have a casual job in your field. Being an international student, having
an extra income can surely help you in your expenses.
In getting a job you can use the
most common way, through newspaper
ads, employment agencies, government
