Student Jobs and Civic Service Volunteer Opportunities

Student Jobs

Universities may recruit and employ students to perform various types of work, such as welcoming students, assisting and supporting students with disabilities, tutoring, and assisting library staff. These contracts are entered into for a maximum period of 12 months, with working hours that may not exceed half-time during the academic term and that are compatible with the student’s continued studies.

Civic Service Volunteers

The Civic Service program is the main form of civic service, intended for young people aged 16 to 25. It involves:

  • a voluntary commitment lasting 6 to 12 months to carry out a mission of public interest in one of the nine areas of action recognized as priorities for the nation: culture and recreation, international development and humanitarian action, education for all, the environment, emergency response, remembrance and citizenship, health, solidarity, and sports;
  • at least 24 hours per week;
  • resulting in the payment of compensation covered by the government, and additional support, in kind or in cash, provided by the host organization;
  • entitling the recipient to a comprehensive social protection program funded by the government.
