Number Name Participation level

Currently, most students in general are aware that there are many ways of learning, and more and more students are choosing to learn in practice It's overtime Part-time work

is no longer a small phenomenon but has become a trend, closely associated with the academic and daily life of students while still sitting on the school chair Students go to work part-time for income, they also want to accumulate more experience, learn more practically And the reason part-time jobs have now become a trend is because of students, especially when living in today's competitive society, social knowledge and practical knowledge greatly affect their thinking ability as well as their ability to work after graduation

However, there are still many dilemmas surrounding students' decision to work time From the above reasons, we decided to choose the topic <A survey on the demand for part- time jobs of UEH students= to do our research

RESEACH PROJECT

2

3.1 Research problem

This project records and analyses the demand for part-time jobs of UEH students through answering group-generated questions:

1 Who decides your major?

2 What is your field of study?

3 What year are you a student?

4 What do you usually do in your free time?

5 What are your strengths and weaknesses?

6 What type of job are you looking for?

7 What interests you most when starting a part-time job?

8 What is your desired salary?

9 Do you choose work that pays by time or by results?

10 According to you, is being positive for part-time jobs a condition for students to become active and master their thoughts?

11 During university study, do you think students should have a job?

12 What do you think about job placement centers?

With the above information, we can know what an important factor is in choosing a part-time job of UEH students

3.2 About Concerning Regarding Rationale of the Study

Part-time jobs are no longer a small phenomenon but have become a trend It has been closely associated with the study and student life, even while sitting at school Not only for the purpose of increasing income, but also to help students accumulate more experience, practical experience, learn more practically Part-time jobs are inherently a current trend because the market economy is strongly competitive, social knowledge and practical knowledge greatly affect students' thinking ability as well as working ability

After graduation, however, a relatively good study result, these accumulated concepts are achieved or not, depending on their ability to arrange and balance their study and work time Because when you go to work part-time, it means you must accept the limited time, pressure as well as difficulties encountered in your part-time life

3.3 Survey target

jobs of students ueh

University of Economics Ho Chi Minh city directs students to become global citizens, students are always looking for, exploring, learning the good and the new The theory and practice are different, in addition to learning the knowledge that the University provides, students, need to work part-time to hone the skills necessary for the future and serve the country well

The COVID-19 pandemic has passed, and life returned to a new normal but it is not easy for anyone, students in general and UEH students in particular also need to earn extra income to cover life

Therefore, the project 'Demand for part-time jobs of UEH students' overtime needs is carried out based on modeling and hypothesizing the cause of the problem From there, comment and conduct a project report

4.2 Definitions in the project

4.2.1 What is a part-time job and what are its characteristics?

5

Part-time employment is a definition that describes or expresses a job that is informal, infrequent, non-fixed, unstable, or part-time These tasks usually last for a period of 3

to 5 hours per day or less depending on the nature of each job

Unlike full-time employment, also known as full-time employment, part-time jobs are often not fixed, sometimes it is not mandatory for us to go to work, we can do it from home, you have a choice of environment and how to work as well as the time so that

you can work

4.2.2 Why do most UEH students have such a need for part-time jobs?

Currently, with the strong development trend of the city, many chain-store models were born to serve the needs of life Therefore, the need to recruit people to do a lot more

will entail the need for everyone to go to work, especially students

According to the survey, 77.2% of first-year students are those who have average study

time, so free time is quite relative, so it makes sense to find a job that fills the vacancy

Student life has a lot of expenses to spend, in addition to tuition fees also accompanied

by the lodging, and living expenses, so finding jobs from 3 to 5 hours a day will help

students have new sources of income to cover their lives

In addition, a part-time job helps UEH students accumulate many job skills, job skills, and life skills, which are extremely valuable equipment and will help students better in

the process of applying for jobs after graduation

4.2.3 What types of jobs are there in part-time jobs?

There are many types of part-time jobs such as online part-time work, employees at stores, waitresses, kitchen assistants or teaching assistants, home tutors, All the above

is very suitable for students, especially UEH students

4.3 Implementation process

• Observe the situation, problems around the school, life, society, and real

situation

• Decide on the topic to conduct research

• Set the goal of the study

• Create questions and design questions on Google forms

6

• Conduct a survey by posting forms on social networking sites and uploading them to UEH student groups and conducting a survey of 180 students studying

at the University of Economics Ho Chi Minh City

• Quantitative, qualitative data was used in the project Descriptive statistical research methods are used in the project Use questionnaires to analyze factors that affect UEH students' need to work part-time and don't do more

• Use Microsoft Excel software to import data, analyze, and process data

• Use Microsoft Word to analyze the results collected and conduct project reports

4.4 Theoretical basis

4.4.1 Statistical Method

Our team processed the data after completing the survey using statistical methods

of description and statistical inference To clarify more about the needs of UEH students to work part-time and not to do more, the causes and benefits or limitations From there, there are reasonable solutions, helping people have a multidimensional view of the needs of students

Sample selection method

For the project to be completed smoothly, and as accurately as possible, our group has reduced the scope of UEH students and conducted online surveys This makes

it easier for our group to collect information and process data

4.4.2 Survey scales for data processing

There are 4 basic types of scales to present in order capable of increase information expression:

Nominal scale: in this scale, the numbers are only used to classify objects, they have

no other meaning In essence, the nominal scale is the classification and naming of expressions and the designation of them a corresponding number

Ordinal scale is a scale on which the numbers on the nominal scale are arranged according to a certain convention of hierarchy or inferiority, but we do not know the distance between them This means that any hierarchical scale is a nominal scale but cannot be inferred in reverse

Interval scale is a special form of hierarchical scale because it indicates the distance between hierarchies Usually, the interval scale takes the form of a continuous and steady sequence of digits This sequence of numbers has two poles at either end that represent two opposing states Statistical calculations can be added to this type of

understandable when it is at the end of the day, students do not have to go to school and have free time to go to work Students have a desire to work in the afternoon and morning at 31% and 25%, respectively, although it accounts for a smaller proportion in the evening but is generally negligible, which depends on their ability to schedule

5.2.3 Does your family support student employment?

Our group surveyed 180 students studying at the University of Economics in Ho Chi Minh City and the results showed that as the chart side, the percentage of UEH students who have the support of their families to go to work is up to 83%, this is a significant number and can be considered a positive number

However, the remaining 17% of UEH students still do not receive the encouragement

of their families in working part-time jobs
