My son is also a college student and struggled with finding a job that allowed him time to study. He started doing food deliveries as well as grocery deliveries. It's working out for him as it allows him to be flexible with his work time.

Hello Moises,
I think it is always ideal to find a paid internship related to your major/field of study. Not only an internship could help you earn valuable work experience related to your major while getting paid, it could also potentially land you a full-time job at the end of your internship. Since most internships are open to students with minimal/no work experience, I suggest you give it a try!
Speaking from experience, I also think being a peer tutor is a good idea. When I was working on campus as a peer tutor, I get paid by tutoring students in classes that I have already taken and performed well on. It is definitely a very rewarding job and I find myself constantly learning more about the materials/communication skills everyday! During down times, I was able to study/do homework too.
Some of the part time jobs I know that allow flexibility are: Library Front Desk Worker, University Book Store Employee, Teaching Assistant, Recreation/Fitness Center Employee etc.
I hope this helps! Good Luck!

I had several jobs throughout my college years but will say that working as a waitress / server provided me with flexible hours and easy pocket money, as majority of your earnings are through tips you collect during each shift. I also learned about customer service and the ability to deal with people. This is a great way to meet new people and learn how to work as a team given a restaurant can be a very fast paced and demanding environment.
