Where: Colonial First State
What: Superannuation Fund Admin
How much: 45K pakage+ super +other bullshit benefits
Hours: 8.30am -5pm Mon-Friday
Uni 3 days a week after 5.30pm.
Assuming you have only 12 contact hours in your degree (similar to a straight becon).

Going to uni 3 days a week would be spreading your time out to 4hr on average a day.

All lectures and tutorials for econ as far as i know end at 8pm at UNSW.

I call bullshite. Unless you skip every single lecture and just attend tutes?

He's doing part-time night classes.

They do that too, you know. 2 subjects = ~8-10 hours. Sounds fairly reasonable to me.

helldesk for ATO
$20 /hr, 15 hours per week

perks: flexible and pretty cool manager, reasonably relaxing job, 5 minutes walk from my lectures and an endless supply of flavoured milk in the fridge, and sometimes we get free lunch/breakie :)
cons: boring as watching paint dry, have to wake up at 6am on mondays (if i didn't have this job i could wake up at 12), have to deal with some real fucktards. also no overtime.

woo

It's easy to get office work, I recommend temping to get experience if you need it, then apply for full time work.

tcc (the company connection), recruitment edge and recruitment solutions are all pretty good. I've temped with all of them and got my current job through RS

IF ANYONE HERE TEMPS WITH TCC OR RECRUITMENT EDGE, TELL THEM ERIN CAROLAN SENT YOU :p
