a) One of the greatest things about a part-time job is that it doesn’t have to take over your life. A couple of evening shifts here or there leaves you plenty of time to do the things you want to do.

b) Part-time jobs frequently involve work where you can earn more than your basic hourly wage. Part-time jobs such as bar work, waitering, etc. in general pay a pretty standard rate. Take into account tips and bonuses (and maybe food and drink) and all of a sudden the pay becomes pretty good! This is something you want to look into before taking any job.

c) Part-timers have the same legal rights as full-timers nowadays. This means that no employer can discriminate against you for only working a few hours a week. Check in the job description for entitlements such as holiday pay, sick pay, bonuses and other perks.

d) Never underestimate the savings you are going to make by taking a part-time job! This is one of the biggest mistakes people make. They say: “Fifty pounds a week is not going to be enough for the way I want to live”. If you’re getting fifty pounds a week for doing two evening shifts in a pub or bar, this is two evenings that you can’t go out and spend any money. So not only are you earning extra cash, you’re also saving money by not being able to spend any.

e) Working over the holidays means you have less time for holidays – part-time jobs may take a few hours during your term, but at least you’ll have the whole holidays to do what you want to do.

If you do end up with the dilemma of choosing a part-time job or a holiday job always make sure of a few things. For a lot of people there is no choice between part-time jobs and holiday jobs – and having to do both is a harsh reality. With proper research and a bit of luck anyone can get a job that they will both enjoy and earn reasonable money from.
