Finding Work
When to look
Don’t leave finding work until the last minute. Try to plan ahead and find work before you start the academic year, or at the latest in your first few weeks of term.
Where to look - institutions
All of the institutions in York have people who can help and advise you about finding work. Your college or university’s student support department will be able to direct you to the appropriate person.
The University of York and York St John University provide job shops linking students with local employers offering part-time or vacation work. You are able to search for part-time vacancies without registering and so do not need to belong to either of these institutions. Click the appropriate link to access these sites.
