STUDY AND WORK

Unemployment rates in Australia are only around 6%, so there is work available. Also, the institution where you choose to study may offer a range of services (assistance with your CV, information sessions on the job market, how to find a part-time job etc) to help you out.

 

Most part-time student jobs tend to be in the hospitality and service sectors, but you may be able to find work in other areas. It all depends on your English level, availabilty and offer. There are no restrictions in what sectors you can work in nor the job as long as as you fulfill your study requirements (attendance and evaluations).
