Think about what your requirements are. What times of day can you work? what days of the week? How many hours per week? If you are a student, you're limited by school hours and how much time you need for homework and other activities.
Then, think about what kind of work you want. Are you a people person? Do you like cooking? Indoors/outdoors?
Make a list of places that might meet some of those requirements. Then, apply. I would imagine most places have you apply online, but many still do paper applications. Go in with honest answers about what you can give to them.
Then, wait for an interview.

Hello Patrick, Fortunately, we have so many options to find a job! But, before we go, I'd like to give you some recommendations :) 1st - Check if there are websites focused on your field of study;
2º - Check also if you have companies focused on hiring students;
3º - Sometimes you can find seasonal jobs for young students in tourist parks;
4º - Sometimes your college can help you find a part-time job; In addition to the above, I'd strongly recommend you check the LinkedIn Job Portal.

Check job portals.
Network with people and they can help you.
If you are a student, find what fits you best and start applying in that sector.

Become part of a nearby career group that matches your passions and goals. Focus on creating connections and be attentive to potential opportunities. Think about stepping into a leadership role within these groups (as they often require assistance) to unlock even more possibilities.
