We researched on part-time jobs for KGU students in Speaking Ⅲ.
On the other hand, about 35 % of KGU students didn't have any part-time jobs and 81 % of them lived with their parents. The ratio of men to women was 9 to 7. Then we asked 3 questions to them, why they didn't have any jobs, what job they wanted to get and if they got regular allowance from their parents. Reasons of not having a part-time job are mainly "studying is priority" and "still looking for a job". Then, 31% of the students who didn't have any jobs wanted to get ones related to teaching, 19% answered apparel, and 12% answered restaurants. Surprisingly, 3 over 4 of them got regular allowance from their parents. I wonder how the students who don't get allowance can live without any part-time jobs!
Next, we asked the purposes of doing part-time job, and many students said "to get extra money". Some students also answered "to experience workplaces", "to prepare themselves to work in the future" or "to help their families". By the way, there are a variety of complainers at any shops and stores. As many as 73% of the students have encountered them! I think that there might have been some faults they did, however, there should have been some strange complainers who were lack in common sense.
Then, we show how long the students have worked at the workplaces. I wonder if that was because two of us are 2nd-year students and we asked many students in the same year, 44% of the students have worked for over a year to less than 2 years. 23% have worked for over a month to less than 6 months. They might have changed their jobs more than once. 13% have worked for over half a year to less than a year. 17% have worked for over 2 years and only 3% have worked for less than a month. However, since we can't continue working unless we don't like our jobs, we asked if the students liked their jobs and most of them said "Yes!" The major reason was that simply it was fun. The other reasons were that they had good co-workers and good atmosphere, got good experience, good salary, and tasty extra meal. To the contrary, there were a few students who didn't like their jobs because they couldn't get enough salary.
Also, we indicate the scale of their workplaces and the average of their shift frequency in a week of each grade. 40% of them had 1 to 10 co-workers, 33% had 11 to 20, and 23% had 21 to 50. There were only 4% that had over 50 co-workers. Besides, the hardest workers were 3rd-year students. They worked 3.8 times a week. The 2nd hardest workers, 2nd-year students worked 3 times a week. 4th-year students worked 2.2 times and 1st-year students worked twice a week.
Now or in the future, we have to get a real job, so we asked what is the most important for finding jobs and most of the KGU students chose "high salary", "Challenging of the workplace" and "Atmosphere of the workplace". About 15% answered "significance in the society" and there were about 9% that thought "environment of the workplace" was important.
Finally, though there are less and less housekeepers in Japan, would you like to be ones if you could be? About 40% of the students said "yes" and there were more students who didn't have any part-time jobs and wanted to be a housekeeper, than we had expected! They account for more than 60% of students who wanted to be it.
In conclusion, there are some points that we found through the research. First, the fact that there were a lot of students who answered the purpose of job was to get extra money, shows to enjoy their university life needs much money. At first sight, it was stressful for them to work because many of them have seen complainers, though, thanks for their nice workplaces, they seems to enjoy working. Second, sophomores and juniors are accustomed to university life, so I think they work hard. Conversely, freshmen have just entered the school and seniors have to find their real job, so they don't work so hard. At the end, the students who don't have part-time jobs want to be a housekeeper.
