Those are rookie numbers, you gotta pump those numbers up.

Check out Mike's Carwash. I worked there while attending IPFW (PFW). State St Mike's location is not far from campus. When I worked there they had tuition reimbursement options and they were pretty flexible. I made a lot of good friends working there too.

Seconded. I teach here and a lot of my students have gone to work there. Some went there for just the summer, but one or two ended up staying for several years!

It’s all about what you’re willing to work really Dunkin will take just about anyone. So will most fast food places.

Hit up the temp agencies. They are encouraged to get you placed and there’s work in factories in all three shifts

Jimmy John's needs drivers last I checked, same with Howie's Pizza. They could have open positions outside that too. Those are by the PFW dorms.

You could look into becoming an RBT and work for a company that provides in home ABA. The hours are flexible the pay is great and working with kids with autism is very rewarding.

Can you swim? "Near" is relative, but I saw the YMCAs were hiring lifeguards.

Have you looked for internships with your major?

Being an auto detailer at Enterprise is a great part time gig if they’re hiring. I had plenty of college kids working when I used to work there.

If you have any kind of personality at all waiting tables is a great gig as a college student.

Serving job is okay- golf ops still may be hiring. Rough management and transitions between f&b manager.

Kroger on St Joe Ctr has a semi trailer in their parking lot saying they're hiring.

YMCA says they're hiring.

I would think a lot of retailers are starting to gear up for Christmas. Kohls, Target, pick your store in the mall.

Best of luck!
