Factors a student should consider while finding a part-time job in 2022


A student might consider working part-time for many reasons. It could be for gaining work experience, or for earning some extra money but there are a few factors that every student should always consider while choosing a part-time job.

 


  1. The job should be connected to your education- 


The part-time job should be related to your field of education so that it will give you an experience that will help you in getting a better understanding of your studies, and makes it much easier for you to pursue your career as a part-time job that is related to your education increases your years of experience in the field, and this could also be an advantage in finding a full-time job after your studies.

 

  2. The job should fix your schedule- 

A part-time job that clashes with your lectures/lesson schedule will not let you focus on your studies. Even if you will be paid for the hours of work you do, you will not be able to get the real-time learning experience every student would like to have.

 

 3. It should pay you at least to cover your essential needs-


 Even if your part-time job doesn’t help you live a life fully independently you should at least be able to cover your essential needs, and minor expenses like your phone bills, and food. Because if your part-time job doesn’t pay you enough to cover minor expenses as such it is not worthy to invest your time in working as you could simply focus on your studies more during that time.  

 

 4. The job should be something that you enjoy doing-

Like all the other full-time workers, part-time workers should also enjoy the job they do. We could also end up saying that part-time workers should be able to enjoy the job that they do more than full-time workers. Because students will be having projects and various subjects to study so they must enjoy the work that they do because if they don’t they will not be able to concentrate on both. So, both studying and working would become a burden from then onwards. The job that you do should be Stress relieving so that you can focus on your studies well.

 

 5. Think about whether you have the mental strength to maintain a work-life balance- 

Even if students decide to work part-time for their extra income, working part-time while studying could be tiring. A student who is planning to work part-time should think about whether he/ she has the capability of handling both their studies and work at the same time.

 


6. Check whether you are paid according to the standards of wages-

There could be instances where a part-time worker will be paid less without considering the effort that is put in. You should consider how much you are paid according to the industry. Because it is your right to get paid for the effort that you put into the work. So, you should be reading the documents related to your work carefully before signing an agreement. 

 

 7. You should be open to learning new things and should have the interest to surf into new areas to develop different skills and knowledge.

 

 8. Other factors like vocation period, vacation pay, and job location, should be considered when choosing a part-time job.

CHAIN OF COMMAND

Image
 CHAIN OF COMMAND This is one of the principles that can be explained through an organizational structure. It shows the unbroken way of authority that flows from the top-level management to the low-level management of an organization.  A chain of command should be effective for communicating with the employees. It should give a clear picture to the workers on what decisions they can make on their own, the situations they should follow the commands of their supervisors.  The chain of command helps us to understand that every employee should be accountable to their immediate supervisor.  This is also used for creating specialized workers as it helps to separate works according to the  organizational structure and assigning, commanding the workers to do certain tasks. A good chain of  command also improves the responsibilities of workers as it exhibits the order of authority  and power  of a certain position in the organizational structure.
