What if you are a junior or senior? Do you think your part time job is worthless? Wrong again!
There are several reasons you should start getting involved early and hold a part time job, no matter what year you are or how old you may be. According to US News and World Report’s“10 Paying College Jobs That Look Good on Your Résumé” by Alexis Grant, college students are expected to get professional experience as well as get good grades.
According to the article, here are the top 10 paying college jobs that look good on your résumé:
1. On-campus tour guide (a Southern Ambassador, here at GA Southern)
2. Brand ambassador
3. On-campus IT support
4. Social media consultant
5. Waiter or waitress
6. Writer
7. On-campus career services (Apply to be a Career Educator today! Visit employment.georgiasouthern.edu by February 29th, posting number 0606655 )
8. Bank teller
9. Working for yourself
10. On-campus alumni affairs
Not only do these jobs give you relevant experience in many fields, but if you are not sure about what you want to do yet, these jobs can help you figure it out.
Grant wrote, “These 10 jobs are great choices for students because they look good on a résumé, work around class schedules, and offer decent pay. Keep in mind that if you work on campus, your boss may be more sympathetic when you need time off to study for a sociology exam or finish that chemistry lab.”
Do not stop with these jobs, though. Any job or volunteer experience can help you in some way or another, whether it is customer service experience, public speaking experience, perfecting your computer, or getting recommendations.
