On-campus job, off-campus work card and salary introduction for studying in the United States

Now more and more American students apply for jobs. The daughter said in the video: Because American students haven't applied for jobs on campus for a long time, there are many people who need jobs and have to wait in line. Studying in the United States, it seems that quite a few foreign students apply for jobs. If they don't apply in time, they may not find suitable opportunities. I am very much in favor of my daughter going to work, for nothing else. The most important thing is to have a wide range of contacts, improve communication skills and enhance self-confidence.

American student work

The opportunity for American students to work on American campus, the handling of off-campus work cards and the introduction of salary, I hope it will help children.

In recent years, the high cost of studying in the United States has gradually relaxed the working conditions for international students, especially the opportunities for working on campus are increasing. Many American colleges and universities regard providing job opportunities on campus as an effective way to help students solve the tuition problem. Generally, the salary for working on campus is 5-8 USD/hour.

There are also many American universities that use students instead of some administrators to do some on-campus work, thus reducing the labor cost of the school. Most jobs in American universities are relatively easy. For students, it is more convenient to work on campus, and you don't have to run around, which can save a lot of time and energy.

Part-time jobs in American universities are mostly concentrated in the following departments:

1, library

American university libraries provide more employment opportunities for students. The library environment is simple, the work tasks are not heavy, and you can enjoy reading by the way. It is the most justified work-study place. Because this kind of work is popular, it is suggested that foreign students go to the library to ask for relevant information as soon as possible after arriving at school.

2. Computer room

Computer rooms in American universities usually employ many students as computer assistants to provide information and on-site help to students who use computers. If foreign students are proficient in computer knowledge, they can apply to be an assistant in the school computer room.

3. School canteen

American universities generally have restaurants, and besides administrators and chefs, other staff often employ students. There are many opportunities for this kind of work, and the work is easy and simple. In addition to a certain economic income, it can also solve the problem of eating.

4. Student dormitory

The dormitories of undergraduate students in American universities are all equipped with dormitory management assistants, which are generally undertaken by graduate students. This kind of work can not only enjoy the benefits of free accommodation, but also have a certain economic income, and will not occupy a lot of private time.

5. Others

School administrative organs often need people to be administrative assistants, secretaries, and even drivers and cleaners. These jobs can be undertaken by students. School bookstores, school police and other institutions will also recruit students, and those who are interested can sign up. If you have experience in teaching Chinese, you might as well apply for a job as an assistant in a Chinese class on campus.

Second, the remuneration of American students working outside the school (the average remuneration of unskilled hourly workers)

1, packing and delivering goods for supermarket salespeople, 4-5 USD/hour.

2. Clean the room, 15 USD/hour.

3, as a nanny, 5- 10 dollars/hour.

4, typing, 3-5 dollars/page.

5. As a waiter at a large banquet, it costs $65,438+00 per hour (uniform is required).

6. Clean the garden and mow the lawn for others. 10- 15 USD/hour.

7. Tutoring homework, 10- 15 USD/hour.

8. Painting walls and ceilings, $65/room; Wallpaper with brush, 150-300 USD/room (depending on the room size).

9. Help people run errands, queue up, go to the post office or dry cleaners, and take care of pets. 10- 15 USD/hour.

10, go to the restaurant to wash dishes, clean the table, etc. , and free meals.

3. What should American students do when they work outside school? Work permit?

According to the regulations of the American government, foreign students do not need to apply for special permission to work on campus, but they must register to maintain their full-time student status. International students can apply to the international office of the school with their ID cards. As students, part-time income is not taxable. During the semester, the weekly working hours are generally limited to less than 20 hours, and you can also work outside the school for up to 40 hours on holidays.

If you work off campus, you need to apply for a special work permit. The specific provisions are: those who hold a legal student status, have been enrolled for more than 9 months, and meet the general standards can work in a company recognized by the Immigration Bureau or the Ministry of Labor with the approval of the school's foreign student consultant. The work is valid for one year, but they can apply for an extension. Remember, the company you work for must be a company recognized by the Immigration Bureau or the Ministry of Labor, not any company.

International students can also apply for jobs in the United States in the name of internship. Applicants for international students in the United States must study for one academic year first, and then fill out the relevant forms and apply for a work permit at the immigration office within 90 days before graduation and 30 days after graduation with the recommendation letter from the school's international student consultant. When applying, you should make it clear to the Immigration Bureau that the purpose of internship is to gain work experience so that you can return to China for employment after graduation. You can work for one year after being approved by the Immigration Bureau.

Fourth, social security number.

There is also a fundamental reason for American students to work, that is, they can get the American social security number. After getting a job opportunity, students can ask the school to help them apply for social security numbers. The so-called social security number is equivalent to the personal ID card. In the United States, if you attend training or learn a driver's license, you need a social security number. The required working hours are an essential application condition.
