I have done multiple on-campus jobs during my master's in Computer Science at Northeastern University including a Teaching Assistant job. In this video, I'm sharing with you guys some of the tried and tested pro-tips that you can also use to find a TA and RA job. We will talk about how you can find a Teaching Assistant and Research Assistant job in the first semester itself. We will also talk about ideal strategies and how much money you can earn as a TA or RA within a USA university. This video is a great resource for upcoming international students looking to pursue an MS or BS from the USA.
If you're interested in knowing about how to find other on-campus jobs like working at a restaurant, bookstore, coffee shops, university offices, etc. then do check out below video talking in detail about the same.

Thank you for explaining everything clearly; it’s super helpful. I’m applying to grad schools rn. Would you recommend reaching out to professors now or waiting til I’m admitted to the masters program?

Hey Mayank, thank you for explaining . I wanted to know when is the best time to apply for TA positions if I am a student of spring 24. Also what are some of the challenges one might face while applying to TA's as a spring student.

@FellowBrownie 6 ай бұрын

Hey! I'd suggest to start applying as soon as you get access to your university portal. There should be a jobs page where you can see on campus job listings. You can do this even before coming to the US.

Do we get full tution fee waiver for TA and GA jobs? Does these jobs depends on the type of MS we are doing like course based or thesis based.

@FellowBrownie Жыл бұрын

Yes, it depends on university and program. Usually, universities offer an hourly pay of around $20/ hr for TA and RAs.

Is it possible to get a RA position outside my department? I’m from engineering management and I’d like to get a RA position in Data science.

@FellowBrownie 4 жыл бұрын

Yes, it's totally possible. Make a resume and a cover letter talking about your experience in Data Science and use the same when applying to such RA positions or attach them while dropping an email to professors/RAs. I would highly recommend doing some personal projects in your free time as they really showcase your interest in the field and employers in the US appreciate them a lot. Also, mention the same in your resume/cover letter.

I am going for MS program which will be started in Spring 2021. So,should I apply now for TA/RA jobs now or later? Can we send mail to professors for this job with our personal email id or should send with college official email id

@FellowBrownie 4 жыл бұрын

Hey! Start looking for on-campus jobs around 2 months before you plan to be in the US. It would be ideal if you send email through your school email id as that would look more legit and the chance of getting a response from a professor would be higher. Also, just a general tip, try to use your college email id in your intern and full-time search as well. You'll have access to it even after you graduate.

There may be a lot of competition for these jobs and how can i stand out in them. Everyone will be trying to get friendly with professor and other networking options. How can i get it

@FellowBrownie 4 жыл бұрын

Hey! In my experience, not a lot of students did that. It takes great efforts to do be present in most of the office hours of professor and TAs and since they're optional, most of the students fail to do that. Some professors are also comfortable in sharing their phone number, try to drop a text, or call them as per their availability. If you try enough, you can always get an on-campus job, it all depends on how much effort you put in to get one. Hope it helps :)

@@lucykelly499 You definitely stand a chance. Start looking/applying online on the university job portal 2 months before you're planning to be in the US or on-campus. In case, you get a response to your application, respond to them by telling your expected start and also request a telephonic interview.

@@lucykelly499 What you get from a TA/RA job depends a lot on the university. Most universities would just pay you around $20/hr. for working as a TA/RA while there are some universities which offer a discount in tuition fee, free university health insurance, etc. Generally, it's the full-time employees of a university who get tuition fee discounts and even free courses, that's one of the perks of working full-time at a university.

If I am working as a TA then can I even work on campus like in restaurants etc?

@FellowBrownie 4 жыл бұрын

As an international student, you're allowed to work 20 hrs/week, so you can spend any ratio with a total of 20 hrs in any number of jobs. For e.g. spend 10 hrs a TA and 10 hrs working at an on-campus restaurant. Hope it clears the doubt :)
