Having a job just adds stress

There's no denying that adding a job to a college student's schedule is only going to make life harder and take away more free time but it all comes down to the type of job you have. Brianna Cords works as a hostess at Olga's Kitchen  and is having a difficult time finding space in her schedule to actually do school work. Being a finance major Cords already has a difficult time keeping up with school and when she adds a job that doesn't do much for her experience in pursuing a career in finance, it starts to bring down her motivation level at work and even starts to show in the classroom. 

Having a job is good

Having a job has many perks to it especially when it relates to what you want to peruse as a career when you graduate college. Kevin Schuett is an engineering student at Michigan State University and not only is perusing one of the hardest career paths on college campuses but he's also doing it while maintaining a job as a research assistant at the Composite Vehicle Research Center  which is giving him the advantage over most of his peers. Having a job that is related to your degree makes working much more enjoyable because you are finally getting your feet wet to what you plan on majoring in.
