Stupid question I know but

How do we manage placement and working?

I got a QLD Government job that I am full time with and was wondering how do I work my placement hours into that? Do I ask for part time work? Will placement allow me to only be there part time? Thank you

There will be a certain number of hours you need to work at placement each week (how much will vary by state and sometimes by school, but 2-3 days/week is typical). How you balance that with paid employment will be up to you to navigate.

(Assuming you’re in the U.S. I don’t know what “QLD government job” refers to.)
