‘All study and no play makes Jack a dull boy!’ When in the Netherlands, this line goes very well with the international student, as no part-time work might make an international student not just broke but dull too! And why miss out, especially in a country which is known as the ‘Part-time Capital of Europe’?
With nearly half its workforce working part-time, it is not just about the pocket money! Apart from covering your cost of education in Netherlands including paying for your rent, groceries, train passes, and that extra coffee in the cold region of the Netherlands, these jobs open doors to Dutch culture, improve your CV, and sometimes even lead to full-time roles - all while still keeping your higher studies as your main focus.
