Hi Jade. You need to figure out how to manage your time so you can focus on your studies while also earning some money or gaining work experience.
First, you should think about how much time you have outside of your classes for work. College courses often take more time than you might think because you'll need to study, do assignments, and read for each class. After that, you need to think about things like eating, sleeping, and any other activities you want to do. Once you see how much free time is left, you can figure out how much work you can realistically handle.
When looking for a job, you can choose something that gives you some flexibility. On-campus jobs are often a great choice because they understand that students have busy schedules and can work around exams and assignments. If you work from home or do freelance work, you can also set your own hours, which can help a lot when you need to adjust to your schoolwork load.
In addition to work, college is full of other activities like clubs, sports, or volunteering, which are great for meeting people and gaining experience. But these take up time too, so you'll need to balance work with these activities. You may use a planner or a digital calendar to stay organized and make sure you're not stretching yourself too thin. Hope this helps. All the best.
