Hey aska,
How do I get a cool campus job? Like one that would take up all my time and stuff?

Hey Ron,
I guess having to attend lectures and complete readings and study your butt off isn?t enough for you to keep busy on campus, huh? You must love U of T so much that you don?t just want to study here, but you want to work here too.
The first place to look would be the Career Centre website. There, you can use the Job Search and find part-time, volunteer, and casual work opportunities listed by outside employers. But the best way to score a job on campus would probably be through the work-study program, which hires students to work part-time in jobs like assisting a professor with their research, working in a college registrar office, or helping out at the Career Centre. You can work up to twelve hours per week, but you?re capped at 180 hours for the length of your contract. But the work-study program is really great because your employer is perfectly aware of the fact that you?re a struggling student and if one week you?re cramming and need a little time off, you?ll probably get it.
Another little suggestion would be checking out the Rotman?s Paid Research Participation System. They usually have some easy 30-minute survey sessions that pay you five bucks that can fit around your schedule.
But if that?s not enough to take up all your time and ?stuff,? you can move onto the conveniently titled ?Working on Campus? page for some further suggestions.
best,
aska
