How University Students Engaging in Paid Employment Affects Their Performance

As there are more and more people coming to Australia to study and to seek for jobs, the competitive ratio is higher and

Employment can have a positive effect on my learning because it motivates me to do the best I can so that I can achieve my career goals. It would also benefit me because if I was employed with a part time job, I could have money that I would buy nice things with. I enjoy luxury things so by getting a snippet of what I can buy with the money I’m already earning can be a motivator for me to do well so that I can get a proper job and earn a lot more money which means having nicer things which I would enjoy and be my reward for doing well.

When it comes to achieving success in the work force and finding a fulfilling and lucrative career there are few things more important that higher education. Going to college and getting a degree is essential in finding success in the work force. The problem is when the cost of gaining that degree outweighs the financial compensation the career that follows is able to supply. Very few people are able to pay for college out of pocket. The result of this is that students seeking higher education are forced to take out massive student loans. This means that they are entering the work force

Nowadays, international students need spend at least $12,000 per year on their daily life in Australia. Moreover, in consideration of student’s lifestyle and place of study, this estimate might be even higher. Therefore, government allows students to take a maximum of 20 hours part-time work per week in order to get living subsidies. Some people claim that these working hours is a drop in the bucket for students who faced with economy pressure. However, these people ignored the enormous study pressure on international students. Students must work in a time restriction because, firstly, students need many study time, especially for international students. Furthermore, physical problems will be happened which are of great fundamental to a

In 1998, the university expanded the scheme to widen opportunities for students from isolated country schools. The scheme incorporates three components: outreach, access and support. The need to investigate trends in Australian higher education institutional access and equity policies in the context of a mass higher education system has been identified including trends in criteria for entry to higher education and the implications of these on institutional structures, as well as teaching approaches and standards.

There are reports that have been produced in the last couple years that state nearly half of college graduates work in jobs that do not actually require a degree. Even though these students are technically employed, they can be considered underemployed and often having trouble repaying their student loans. The student loan debt can be crippling if students are not able to find the type of job in which they studied for. Many students are not able to find jobs in the salary range that they expected while others do not earn degrees that have much value in the job market at all. In some of the reports that have emerged it is not uncommon to hear that a sample of taxi drivers had a large percent of their workforce that held bachelor's degrees.

For four year public and private universities, the amount of work necessary to pay for college tuition is much higher. Working for long hours can impede students from partaking in several habits that are linked to success in college, such as getting adequate rest, studying, and being involved in extracurricular activities.

As an international student in Australia, one can expect to live, grow and learn in a rich, vibrant country full of opportunities. This is why, every year thousands of international students migrate to this rich country to pursue management education.

Poor skill labour: Because the number of people migrated to Australia is growing rapidly there is more competition in getting a job, especially international students want to have a great job in there. Many low-paid workforces have been opened by overseas businesses such as India, China, Viet Nam and Korea so that they can get more benefits and increase input by making short-term contract, part-time job or paying at a low salary. As a result, some Aussie employees may have no choice to get into an unexpected job and it makes the skill of worker much

The importance of academic qualifications, which was always debatable, but now has become more controversial. The substantial influence of a degree has sparked the controversy over the potential impact on students to pay full-cost of their course. It can be agreed that a qualified person does have an opportunity to earn high salary. This essay will elaborate how hard work helps individuals to earn more and how demand of work pay higher rate and thus leads to a logical conclusion.

According to Jonathan Orszag, “There are two types of working students, including those who primarily identify themselves as students but who work in order to pay the bills, and those who are first and foremost workers who also take some college classes” (Orszag). Most students consider themselves as workers who study since they are working full-time for the sake of paying off their college tuition. In addition, full-time employment possibly could undermine a student’s performance in class. Students who work about thirty-five hours a week often have negative results on their studies, while students who only work ten hours a week appear to have a positive impact in their GPA. On the downside, working an average of ten hours a week will only earn the student about three to four thousand dollars a year, which is only enough for one semester of classes at a CSU school. Three to fours thousand dollars a year is not a sufficient amount of money to purchase the classes for the remaining second semester and other personal

Although Dr. Rebar perspective on the PhD process is different, having completed her PhD in America, the information provided in the lecture was well founded and relevant to the Australia education process. Lecture slides presented detailed statistics on the outlook for PhD students, providing employment percentages for postgraduate students, salary expectations and the most frequently reported occupations. These clearly showed the advantages of undertaking a PhD. Another advantage of a PhD was the ability to be able to hone in on a topic that interests you and be able to become really invested in your field of interest. Also unlike industry jobs, where you are limited to hour-based work, a PhD offers schedule flexibilities. Interestingly, Dr. Rebar noted on several occasions that

Expansion in the Australian universities has been among the key issues that have been a subject of discussion for a long time. Such expansions would facilitate improvement in the learning institution and encourage further research in the country. Australian universities constitutes among the topmost universities across the globe and increasing opportunities and avenues for more students to learn would lead to expansion and introduction of more learning programs into the system (Ayoubi & Massoud, 2007).

In conclusion, I am excited and ready to begin my post secondary education. Being inspired and having new paths to choose from is exactly why I think that a university diploma or degree will help me gain full-time employment. No one has ever been without options after they have graduated, it is certainly not a given and without a lot of ups and down, but it is certainly a better situation than not having any formal

Student jobs have become a sort of trend among students around the world, who want to work while they are studying. In short, the term that suits this trend is 'Earn and Learn ' policy. Other reason why student jobs are popular among students is they help to cope up with the
