A job relevant to your studies can help kickstart your career  

The biggest reason to get a job related to your studies is that it can be incredibly valuable for your future career. Nearly 20% of all graduates land their first full-time job through their student job. 

However, finding the right position for your qualifications can be challenging. The best jobs are highly sought after, and not every job will fit your exact desires and skills. So, what’s the way forward? 

1. Figure out your own interests

A job relevant to your studies can give you the opportunity to immerse yourself in what drew you to your area of study to begin with. What do you think would be interesting to do? Would you be satisfied with routine tasks, or do you need to be routinely challenged? Your considerations at this point will give you a head start later on in your career, when you switch out your studies for a full-time job.  

2. Establish your skills

How far along are you in your studies, and how confident are you in your skillset within your field? All student jobs give you the opportunity to expand your knowledge, but some are more challenging than others.  

3. Plan your job in relation to your studies

Don’t forget that a student job will take up a part of your free time. Most employers are flexible when it comes to study- and exam plans, but it’s a good idea to plan ahead when you’ll be especially busy.  

4. Write your resumé and practice the application process

Even if you’re only applying for a student job, your resumé and application are still crucial in the process. Consider what would make your resumé stand out and make for an interesting read, with regards to what jobs you’re applying for. Dedicate a little time to adapt your application to each individual job you apply to – make it interesting and credible. Use your trade union – several unemployment insurance funds and trade unions arrange relevant courses for student and recent graduates on this topic in particular.  

5. Use your network

Student job openings are listed in several different places, but many positions can also be found via friends and acquaintances. Talk to your fellow students – large corporations have a steady demand for student assistants and are often permanently on the lookout. You can also actively reach out to businesses accepting unsolicited applications and make yourself known via a phone call or an application. 

6. Apply the right places

It’s not entirely irrelevant where you search for a job – there are several different job sites with different focuses. Luckily, you’ve come to the right place. On StuderendeOnline.dk, we focus on study-relevant jobs for students from all over the country. Make sure to make a job agent – that way, you’ll get out of hunting down posting yourself and get the most relevant postings directly in your inbox. You can set up a job agent directly from the job search function.  

7. Be prepared for the job interview

A job interview can feel a bit like an exam, but fortunately, you can prepare yourself just as thoroughly. You can use our articles on advice for your interview, as well as research the company and show up positive and energetic. Remember that a job interview is also your opportunity to find out whether the position is right for you – not just whether you’re right for the company.

We currently have 676 study-related jobs on StuderendeOnline.dk - below is a small sample, but you’ll naturally get better results by customizing your search in the job section. Good hunting!
