A bar job in the evening is usually the best job to fit around college commitments. Find somewhere that is very flexible (incase you need the night off for party time) and preferable somewhere where other students work as this at least makes it more fun. Temping work is always good as you can accept or decline it if you need extra cash or your busy that night. A job in the university might be useful.

I'm a college student myself and I know the struggles of making money around a busy school schedule. First thing I would suggest is go try a find a position on campus, whether it is working in the bookstore, at concession stands or aiding office personnel. Working on campus is convenient and you might even get a little more studying done. Another thing I would suggest is try to find small business side jobs such as office cleaning, dog walking or whatever is available in your area. Craigslist.org is a good way to search for local businesses/people who need odd jobs done. The last thing I would tell you is search online. There are lots of sites that offer cash for your services such as surfing the web, writing blogs, and posting reviews.

A good second job is one that fits your first job's schedule and allows a lot of freedom and flexibility. I would suggest anywhere that sells carry out pizza as a good second job. Most aren't open too late and many will allow you to work as little as two nights a week. So they make for the perfect second job. Hope that helps.

From my experience, a good second job should let you work at your own time, like a flexible work schedule. The ideal would be to be able to work from your dorm room or home. Another great idea is to earn money from a hobby or interest you already have. Examples would be: photography, baking, writing, & even singing in a band. You never know, your second job might just become your primary income stint for the future.

A good second job I think would be one that does not require high skills or intense mental / physical requirements. I have been a student and the last thing I wanted was a second job at all, not to mention some hard labor or something like this. I opted for piccolo since it did not stress me out as much as some other jobs.

To my understanding, the best 2nd job is to work from home using Internet at own discretion and wish. There are enormous opportunities on web for earning as a 2nd job doer.
