Highest paying part-time jobs in Canada for international students. No experience needed!

hey this is julia and welcome to my channel here talk all things learning languages travel in the world living abroad and much more and today we'll be talking about the best paying jobs for international students in canada if you are a student in canada or you planning to come study in canada you might want to get a job to cover some of your expenses so if you're interested in learning more about making money in canada then keep on watching but make sure to stick till the very end of this video and i'll share my top secret for finding a job in canada as an international student first things first the minimum wage in canada depends on your province but let's say the average minimum wage is 14 because in ontario the minimum wage is 14.35 in british columbia it's 15 20. in quebec it's 13.5 you get the idea you can always find all these wages online second thing people who work at restaurants they might get paid less this is totally legal if you google that stuff you will find all the information on province's website why so because if you work at a restaurant you will get tips so they might pay you let's say 12 dollars per hour instead of 14 but you will compensate with the tips so if your employer offered you let's say 12 bucks don't comment me be like this is less than minimum wage yes and it's totally legal here in canada the most popular job for international students is a taxi driver here we're talking about uber lyft you can make anything from 16 to 19 if you work for example for uber and you can make up to 22 dollars if you work for lyft but the thing is lyft is available in toronto and not available in montreal so before you apply please check what cities do have lived and which cities do have uber so what do you need to become a driver first of all a driver is licensed preferably a canadian one so if you are still thinking about moving to canada and maybe working as a driver make sure to get a driver license in your home country and then once you get to canada don't forget to exchange it for a local one it might not affect your employment situation but it's better to have a canadian driver's license if you're planning to work as a driver in canada also you will need to speak good english or good english and french if you're planning to work let's say in montreal but again they will not ask you to pass an ielts exam or something like that just make sure that you can communicate well with people and that's all that matters you can always go to uber website to lyft website and then find a page work with uber work with lyft the second category is kinda relevant to the first one and it is deliveries anything from ubereats to fedex dhl good food deliveries you name it again you will need a driver license because most of the deliveries are made by car but let's say in montreal uber eats delivers by food so you can walk or buy bicycle so if you don't know how to drive you don't have a driver license or you haven't exchanged it yet you can always ride your bike or even walk but again check your series requirements job number three is a call center representative so if you're good with people if you like communicating or maybe you want to practice your english i mean call center is not the best place to practice your english but let's say you have good english knowledge but you want to talk more you can always work as a call center representative basically anyone literally anyone will have a call center from bank still cell phone companies tell malls or like stores so if you go to careers section on any website any company you like you can find call center jobs again you'll need good english for those type of jobs but don't worry if you have an accent because i know many people are like oh i'm super shy i have an accent my english is not perfect don't worry it's totally fine as long as you can talk to people understand them and help them solve their problems you'll be totally fine call center representatives salaries start at 15 dollars per hour and they can go up to 20 dollars per hour again it all depends on the company because if you work for like government of canada i feel like their wages might be slightly higher than if you work for i don't know ikea call center something like that but again check all the wages check all the compensation online because this information is available speaking of helping people number four is a tutor basically if you want to help your peers with some school subjects you can always work as a tutor on campus off-campus i know you can even work as a teacher's assistant in some colleges when i went to the college we had some people from second year third year helping teachers with teaching so they were helping other people they were making money another good thing is that you will not need to leave your campus so basically you study and then you go work on the same campus this is perfect i think how much can you make as a tutor i think it all depends on you because if you work let's say on campus your minimum wage can start at 15 20 per hour but if you teach in let's say online if you work for a company if you just teach let's say your mother language and you offer your services i don't know on facebook you can ask for like 30 bucks an hour 40 bucks an hour again it depends on what you're teaching because if let's say you're trying to teach english for 50 bucks an hour i wouldn't pay that amount of money for an english lesson but if you're teaching something i don't know like physics quantum mechanics i don't know whatever some difficult stuff yeah 50 bucks an hour sounds reasonable to me and if you're a fan of talking you can always work as a receptionist so number five is a receptionist any place basically will need a receptionist my tip will be go to smaller places to like local places because if there is let's say a chain restaurant it's gonna be so long to do all the like hiring and stuff like that if you go to a small family owned restaurant in little italy and you say giovanni i would like to work for you and giovanni will be okay yeah that's good that's good you don't need to be like you know doing all this corporate hiring stuff he's gonna be like okay show me what you can do that's it so again a receptionist is pretty much the same as a call center agent but with the receptionist job you might need to make reservations for people take reservations maybe even order some you know office stuff again it depends on the place you work at again just go to your local gym to your local restaurant and ask them if they have any receptionist jobs as a receptionist you can get anything from 18 to 20 bucks per hour because if it's a corporate job yeah it might be like you know 18 20 bucks but if you talk to giovanni and be like giovanni i don't want 20 dollars i would like 21. giovanni might be okay with it but i don't think you should be aiming for like i don't know 30 bucks per hour because it's not reasonable but anything up to like 22 bucks is perfectly fine for receptionist job and speaking of restaurants you can always work as a server as a waiter as a hostess those jobs are available all the time everywhere because people always eat no matter if it's coveted no covet restaurants they're always hiring yeah maybe not during the coffee times but you know what i mean restaurant jobs will start at around 11 to 12 dollars per hour but you will always make tips unless you work in the kitchen or as a dishwasher but if you work on the floor meaning serving people you will always get tipped don't forget about that too for this one you might need some experience because if you're a new server it's gonna take so much time to train you but if you have experience at least you know what's going on in the kitchen on the floor on a bar so you will not spend like you know weeks just of training the next one is for my corporate folks if you would like to build a career try working at big corporate stores for example ikea or canadian tire you can always start as a i don't know sales associate and then make your way to becoming a manager or something like that so the entry-level jobs will start at around 13 14 again depending on the province but if you become a manager you might make up to like 20 bucks which is a good thing and i know some people who started as salespeople and now they're managing a whole store i mean that's a good one especially if you're studying for like four years you will need a job for four years that's perfect another way to make money as an international student is to work at hotels hotels have a whole bunch of different jobs from housekeeping to front desks again the salaries would be around 16 i would say you will need good english for sure you might need some experience because making and taking reservations is for i guess responsible people who are very detail-oriented because if you mess something up people might not have a place to sleep that night or something like that so if you're good with people if you like talking to people if you are very you know detail oriented then the front desk would be perfect for you also they hire a lot of bilingual trilingual people so if let's say you speak english and you speak chinese and you speak i don't know ukrainian that would be even better because there would be tourists coming from different cities and countries staying at hotel so your three languages might be a huge bonus for this position the next job is for tough guys like you know sergey from russia so movers if you are a strong guy you can always move furniture again you can work for a store like ikea they always hire delivery slash movers you can always work for moving companies so basically they come they wrap the whole thing and then they move some companies even move houses literally take the whole house and move it salaries start at 16 17. again it depends on the company it depends on the project because if you move in a three-floor house like i don't think they're gonna pay you like 16 it's gonna be like 20 or 30. if any of you have worked as a mover let us know what are the salaries because i feel like it's a minimum wage kind of job but if you move in a lot of stuff or it's a huge project you might get more than that and a bonus job for lazy people it's any work on campus starting from starbucks cafeteria library tutoring like anything that is on campus you will be literally studying and working in the same place so if you study from i don't know nine till three you can work four to six four to seven like this is perfect and if you live in a residence or next to your college or university you don't need to move at all and here's my pro tip for finding a job right away start with seasonal positions and then they will offer you a part-time job a full-time job or will just prolong your contract because there are always ads for black friday black friday is a mess everywhere in canada in the us stores are hiring extra people because they cannot handle the amount of sales going on mother's day valentine's day christmas easter easter maybe not that much but like christmas and black friday you will get a job right away also for any flowery holiday like mother's day or valentine's day i would literally walk in montreal there would be huge signs on the window saying we are hurrying please come help us because people buy a lot of stuff during the holidays so stores will need extra help so keep that in mind if you come in let's say in september they will be hiring for black friday and christmas so that's your moment when you need to go and apply and be like hey i would like to work for let's say black friday and then be like oh i want to work for christmas and then for easter and then you get the idea okay and this is it for today i hope the video was helpful as usual you can support me by giving the thumbs up sharing this video with your friends and i'll see you very soon bye [Music] you
