International Students, Study or Work?

Many students prefers to come in Australia for their further education and applies for the student visa. And luckily they get the approval of their visa too. Students from many different countries like Nepal, China, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Brazil, Spain, Bhutan, Indonesia, Philippines, Vietnam, Columbia, Korea, Japan, Lebanon, etc are mostly found here in Australia for their further education.

But at the same time what I found is many of them struggles for the job rather than studying their course subjects. Its hard to get job here, even though most of them are capable of doing good job. Students gets sticked with low salary jobs and only gives much emphasis on their jobs than to their studies. And still they have to face a lots of problems as an international students.

Many of the students have been flied back to their country because of no work here. I question, are those guys were here for study of work? I know everyone wants to make good money and a good career but I think some people have forgot that there is a time for everyone. “Every dry land has its part of rain water.” So, why to get frustrated? First study hard, make your career and then the wealth will gets increasing according to your performance.

I can see and feel and even have found many students talking about only jobs jobs and jobs in trains, train stations, buses or in bus stops, in public parks, in streets, college, everywhere. Yes, money is important but make money which is enough for you. Don’t run only after the money, it will drive you crazy. So, start concentrating on your studies rather than in your job. One day there will come a job knocking your door after you graduate in your field.

Health is first then education comes ahead and then money follows…..!!

What do you say about this? Are also one of those student who came here in Australia for making money? Or are you a genuine international student here in Australia? Well, its not only about students in Australia, I believe it’s the easily found case in every biggest country like usa, uk, etc.

What factors makes students to work more harder than study their course? I guess this is because of no any services by government of Australia for international students? I think Australia should give some priority for international students too because international students are the 2nd biggest source for Australia’s income. And if government start taking a little bit care of international students then I think there would be better environment to study good and work lightly for the living.

Who is responsible for the bad present time for students, government or they themselves?

  1. Well i’m nepali now from korea, about to go to australia for study.I’ve to feel sorry for author for his inexperience story. Being a nepali , i started my study journey from malaysia to korea now to australia.I know y student talk about job in train , buses n other places. I did it too, why??? coz simple answer ,yes we r here for study but we can’t ask our parent to send money for our whole study cost they can’t….south asian family can’t in normal case.. So we have to find job to help our study and living.When we don’t get job ,we r worried n do every possible things to find job , ask people , request , look newspaper ,internet ,even ask teachers to help.. Many south asian student are successful of studying n living by their job though its hard. So newcomers are ready to take chance. But not everybody is lucky…..If you don’t have money you can’t graduate, everbody knows before leaving their country but we r forced to take risk n ready to struggle to earn n learn…….
    Sorry to tell u the bitter fact,,,,u may be from rich family i don’t know but i’m one of them who struggled but never gave up the hope………. Next time write something only by experiencing not by ur thinking.

  4. nice to read ur blog and your recent article about student in aus and work here but i totally dont agree with u ,students come here to study and as well to become independent so that they dont have to depent upon their parents for tution fee if they come here to study and couldnt earn money and have to ask tution fee with theri parents than whats worth coming here.We leave our country for better education ,to be self relance and as well as to make money so that we can make our future,

  7. I totally agree with the author. I am a Sri Lankan and I have a website for Teachers and Students in Sri Lanka. Daily basis I do get mails from our users about “going abroad” for studing and Australia is a very popular destination. The ultimate goal is to get PR in Australia so they spend a lots of money (for Australian Schools, universities, and to pass exams like IELTS)
    Most of them take loans from banks to find the necessary funds for their education. Most of them do succeed in Australia but as autor says I do know many people who returned back to Sri Lanka.
