The Best-Paying Student Jobs

Looking for a Well-Paid Student Job? Do you want a better-paid student job? Are you looking for a higher-paying student job but don’t know what to look for? Maybe you’ll find what you need in our selection below. Before you start, you should know that wages vary depending on your age and the industry you work in. The older you are, the higher your salary will be.

Golden Jobs

Private Tutoring : Many students offer private lessons, whether in math, economics, languages, or even music. You can give private lessons in almost any subject!

You set your own schedule, and since these lessons are for other students, you’ll most likely arrange them outside school hours.

Salary: Between €20 and €60 per hour.

Interested? Now all you need to do is find students! We recommend the Superprof platform.

Mystery Shopper : For years, companies have used this technique to evaluate the quality of services in stores. You’ll be given a budget to act as a "fake customer" and make purchases in a store (most of the time, you can even keep what you buy!). You’ll stay in character for about twenty minutes, then fill out a questionnaire about your experience in the store.

Earnings: Up to €15/hour.

Working Nights, Sundays, and Public Holidays : As you probably know, night shifts pay more due to the unusual hours and job difficulty. Find a job where you can work Sundays and public holidays, and you’ll (most of the time) double your salary!

Wages during these periods are often paid at 200% or even 300%! ⚠ Be careful! Not all stores, even if they’re open on Sundays, offer this increased salary. Check before applying!

Find a Job in a Big Company : It’s well known: big companies = big salaries. This applies to industries like banking, pharmaceuticals, or chemistry, where you can earn up to €14/hour.

Fun Jobs

Tired of working and feeling like time isn’t passing? Here’s a selection of fun jobs you might enjoy.

Pet Sitter : Ever thought about taking care of cute furry animals to earn money? Pet sitting is a trendy job! Whether it’s dog walking, pet sitting, or home visits, you set your own rates and availability.

Work on a Yacht : Want to go on vacation without spending a dime? Why not become a crew member on a private yacht for the summer? Requirements: Speak English and have good service skills to meet the needs of wealthy clients.

Salary: Up to €2,500 per month, plus the chance to see breathtaking landscapes!

Netflix : Getting paid to watch Netflix—what could be better? Your job? Watch various programs on the streaming platform to assign tags or categorize content. This helps users find movies and series more easily. Perks? You’ll also get to preview films and series before they’re officially available on Netflix. Requirements: A passion for movies and series (any related qualifications would be a plus). Job availability: Currently, Netflix is hiring in the UK and Ireland, but they regularly post other job openings so stay alert!
