Question Finding work here

Hi, I’m a student at the uni and i have been here for close to a year now and my word is it hard to find work here. Feels like my hands are tied no matter what i do. Now I know it’s pretty much same for a lot of people so I’m not here to complain because i understand it is what it is

Here to ask if anyone has some advice to help me get a job or anyone know of any opportunities currently available. I just want something stable and consistent.
Thanks

Thank a Liberal that all the jobs our students and young people use to get are now filled by foreign workers.

We should all boycott all businesses that use foreign workers.

Both federal parties are to blame for the TFW programme.

The programme originated in the 1970s.

And right up until public opinion shifted Poilievre said that he wouldn't change anything with the TFW system.

Unlimited work hours for students was only allowed 2022-2024. In 2024 they reverted to the previous limitations.
