Student Summer Jobs
Bagging yourself a job over the summer holidays will leave you with more money and experience at the end of the year! There are so many jobs available for Students and many companies offer placements, temporary contracts and internships so you can finish in time for the next term at Uni. A temp job doesn’t have to fit in with what you’re studying at Uni. In fact, it is a huge bonus for employers when your skillset and work experience is diverse.
Why not make things easier for yourself and hit up businesses surrounding your hometown? You can shorten your commute meaning more money to spend on living your best life! Once you’ve got yourself a summer job, you’ll have more money to play with making budgeting at uni so much easier!
