Jobs in Bordeaux

As an international student living and studying in Bordeaux you probably won’t have a very large budget.

It might be a good idea to get a part-time job.

Students in Bordeaux can find out about any part-time jobs that are available by consulting notice boards around student institutions, looking in local newspapers and job centres, and visiting their college or universities careers office.

Many student institutions have their own 'job shop’, which displays part-time and holiday vacancies and may issue job vacancy bulletins.

A part-time job is a great contribution to your awareness of a language, by speaking it day to day you will learn the context of certain fraises and words which will make you enjoy the language even more.

The careers service can also provide (international) students with extensive information and advice about employment, training /further study and helping students with job-hunting and making applications in French.

Before taking a job, students should think carefully about how much time they will have available. Success on their course must be their priority. Their studies may be intensive and demanding and they should be realistic about the amount of time this will leave for part-time work. Many students find that working part time helps improve their French, but students must be careful not to let work interfere with their studies.

Looking for a job is seldom easy for any student. For the international student, the job search process can be especially confusing. Students may lack an understanding of the French employment regulations, or perhaps they are unaware of the impact their career choice has on their job search. Students may also be unsure about their role as the student job-seeker and the resources used by the French employers to find candidates.
