Student job and career
Here you'll find information on where to look for a student job, rules and regulations and inspiration for your job search as student or graduate.
A student job in Denmark can e.g. be a part-time job within the service sector, a student job at your faculty or within the field of employment you wish to work in after university. Regardless of the nature of your employment, it's never bad to bolster your CV with a student job for your future career.
Besides the benefits of work experience and funding for your everyday life, your student job is also a great way to meet people, acquire skills in Danish and learn about Danish work culture.
As finding a student job can be challenging, it's best to plan your finances so that you are able to support yourself without a job during the first semester.
