Looking for a job while you're in school?

Having a part-time job while you are in school will give you greater financial independence and "real world" experience. Because working while going to school is a necessity for many students, you should expect competition for even minimum wage positions. Remember to get your foot in the door look for a job that is closely related to your field of study.

For example if you are studying to become a Medical Assistant, while you are in school look for related employment opportunities such a:

• Home Health Aide
• Receptionist (in a medical facility)
• Home Attendant
• Personal Care Aide

If you are studying to become a Pharmacy Technician, while you are in school look for related employment opportunities such as:

• Cashier (In the Pharmacy Department of a Drugstore)
• Inventory Associate (In a Drugstore)

Job opportunities that are closely related to your field will help you get your foot in the door and will help you develop skills that are invaluable to your career.
