All across the country students are limited to entry level jobs because they lack experience. Employers look for resumes that show internship, volunteer opportunities or student jobs that relate to a major. Most students show experience but it is not experience in their career.
College student jobs in your major are as easy to find as those that do something different. The first place to check is in your campus human resource department. Often they have a variety of student jobs on campus that relate to a lot of different topics.
Another place to look is on student bulletin boards around campus and in the dean's office of your major. As an example, if you are a business major, check with the dean's office in the business department. Usually the executive assistants in those areas are asked to list any employers who call want to offer student jobs.
Other places to check for college student jobs are your career office, the online website for your college other students. Many times students know of jobs because they have turned them down and they may be a good source for you.
When you look for a student jobs in your major make sure that you don't overdo the balance between family, school and work.
