Internship vs part-time job
An internship needs to include a learning objective. Generally, a student seeks opportunities in the industry they are interested in with the main purpose of learning about the job or market through on-the-job experience rather than learning about it in the classroom.
On the other hand, a part-time job is less involved with creating learning objectives for the student. This does not mean that you cannot use the experience you get from a part-time job and apply it to your future aspirations! In fact, finding those connections can help you excel!
Where can I find internships or a part-time job?
There are a few places you can start with:
- Your post-secondary school's website
- Your network. Ask around!
- Online
- Indeed
- Government of Canada
- Tutoring Services
- Your City's website
- Outreach. Reach out to a company you love and see if they have any opportunities!
