(Baonghean.vn) - For many students, these days are the "golden" time to earn money. Because although the workload may be more, in return the salary and bonus will be increased three or four times compared to normal days.

Working during Tet season earns two or three times more than the other months, which is the reason why many students studying in Vinh City decide to register to work during Tet. Phan Thi My, a student at Vinh University, works part-time at a coffee shop on Nguyen Van Cu Street. She said that this year she registered to work part-time during Tet because the salary and bonus at her coffee shop are four times higher than normal days.

“It was near Tet, I didn't have to go to school much, and my salary had increased 4 times, so I decided to sign up to work all Tet without a day off,” My shared.

My house is right in the city, so this is also the reason why My registered to work during Tet. “Before Tet, after coming home from work, I arrange time to help my parents clean the house. During Tet, when I don’t have to work, I will go out, wish Tet, meet relatives and friends. But actually, saying that I work during Tet is not really true because my shop is closed on the 30th and the 1st of Tet, starting work from the 2nd, so employees like us also have time off after a busy year. Although I may not be able to go out as much and relax as others, after Tet I will have a decent salary to compensate for the excessive spending during Tet,” My said.

Also living in Vinh, in addition to working as a security guard for a large supermarket on Quang Trung Street, Hoang Quoc Dat - a student at Vinh University - also takes on some other jobs to earn extra income. Dat said that because he just started working on December 25, he did not get a bonus for Tet this year. His security job is until the 29th of Tet, and he has a day off, working 4 hours a day.

So this time near Tet, when the school schedule is not much, Dat took advantage of finding other part-time jobs to earn money for Tet such as making pizza, filming, handing out flyers, cleaning wedding parties, shipping goods... "There is a lot of demand for people to work extra during Tet. But the important thing is whether the salary is high or not", Dat said. The first-year student at Vinh University shared that during Tet, if you are diligent and hard-working, you can earn a decent amount of money.

Unlike Dat and My who have a house in Vinh, Nguyen Thanh Hang - a student at Vinh University of Industry - lives in Do Luong. But Hang still works part-time at a cinema in Vinh city these days. The reason Hang signed up for Tet is because the salary is 3 times higher than normal days. This female student said that last year she signed up for Tet so this year she signed up to work part-time to earn more money and gain more experience.

“My cinema is open during Tet, and it still operates on the 30th as usual. However, my managers are flexible with the working schedule for students, especially those who live far away and register to work during Tet, but still have time for them to go home to celebrate Tet with their families,” Hang shared. Living in Do Luong, Hang will work until the 28th and 29th of Tet, then ride a motorbike back to her hometown until around the 2nd day of Tet and then return to work.

“For me, going home to celebrate Tet on the 30th and 1st is enough. On the remaining days, I take advantage of the opportunity to register for a full-day job to earn money for living expenses until after Tet. Not every occasion can the salary and bonus be tripled or quadrupled like during Tet, so I have to take advantage and work hard to earn money,” Hang said with a smile.
