The best advice that I can give you is one from personal experience, try to get a job at your universities library working a desk, usually the pay is good and you can spend the majority of your time focusing on your own studies, occasionally helping people get books and such.
This.

I'm currently working as a student manager of operations in my University Center and as a programmer and marketer for a campus-based tech start-up. With the former, when I'm not doing my rounds, I get to catch up on homework; as for the latter, well I can easily allot time to homework depending on how much my team can get done in a meeting. Find jobs which may potentially end up in better pay or long-term employment, then think about how much you'd enjoy then job and finally, figure out how to slot that into your schedule so you don't feel like you're oversubscribing to commitments.

I am currently a college student and was wondering what are some good places to work at while going to school? Also what companies are more prone to hiring the young?


Internships, paying or not, that will get you a good job as a college graduate.
