experience and basic skills:AdvantagesWorking a part-time job allows students to start learning about the working world;they can learn about what employers look for in employees.They can learn how to write resumes and how job interviews work.Many on-campus part-time jobs will give students the opportunity to learn administrative skills,such as phone and email etiquette,office electronics troubleshooting,and meeting manners.Gaining such skills while in school will place a student-employee ahead of the curve when they enter the full-time workforce.Be accountable and

performance:DisadvantagesIt is a truth that for a college student,his most important goal must be to gain knowledge.The concern about part-time jobs arises in part from a fear that they could impair academic performance,by leaving students with too little time or too tired to do their school or college work properly.A serious problem has arisen in recent several years that more and more college students abandon study because of their taking part-time jobs Not necessary:DisadvantagesAs college students,we spend almost 16 years in obtaining knowledge.Actually,most of the students are tired of studying and want to get a job to end study life.However,for the graduate students,there will be 30 to 40 years for them to be as doctors,teachers or staff in companies,which is much longer than the student-time.Time is enough for young boys and girls to study how to work,to cooperate,and to seek a life in society.So,why are you so hurry to get a job,even in part time?Not safe:DisadvantagesPart time workers are not given vacations,sick pay,and health care.they need to maintain a good health for their study,and it may risk their life while working in an insecure environment.Be exhausted and a waste of time:DisadvantagesThough some after-school work can help students to practice what they learn in classes,most part-time jobs require nothing of the students knowledge and only waste students time and energy.If one spend a lot of time doing something useless,he or she will be exhausted and have no time to think about the future career and to improve the ability that may have critical effects on the future.Just like a coin,everything has two sides.Taking a part-time job or not,it depends on you!References1University Learning Center:Time ManagementWhat Are the Benefits of Part-Time
