Working
while
studying
Scotland has many part-time
vacancies available for students,
particularly in the service sector.
Working on a part-time basis will
enable you to earn some extra
money while you study. The work
experience you gain may not
necessarily be in the area in which
you intend to seek employment
after you complete your studies.
It does, however, give you the
opportunity to learn and practice
transferable skills that will look
good on your CV when applying
for jobs back home after you
graduate.
Work after
studies
In the summer of 2005, Scotland
launched the Fresh Talent
Scheme. The Fresh Talent
Working in Scotland Scheme
applies to any student who
successfully completes a HND,
undergraduate degree course,
master’s, PhD, postgraduate
certificate or diploma at a
Scottish further or higher
education institution to apply
to stay in Scotland for up to
two years after completing their
studies in order to work. There
are no restrictions on the type of
paid work.
