A part-time job will be a great opportunity to earn your first money and work out which professional areas you like best. We advise you to try out ‘standard’ ways of making money (like working in shops and fast-food restaurants), freelance jobs, and internships. Any experience will do you a power of good!

I want to study at school and university first and then build a career and earn money

No

You’re doing the right thing - the earlier you start, the faster you’ll reach career heights you can’t even dream of now

We vote for continuous professional development!
