Maintaining a full course load can be challenging even under optimal circumstances. Homework, social commitments, and maintaining vital life functions fills most college students’ time. Add the necessity of work to that, and it can be down right difficult.  Did you know that 70 percent of full time students also work? Not surprisingly, another study shows that 70% of college students are also stressed about finances.

It’s no coincidence that those two statistics mirror each other. More often than not, stress is counterproductive. Bearing that in mind, stress is reported as the number one impediment to academic performance. Finding jobs that work around a full-time course load can be tricky at best and stressful at worst. That’s where Indeed Flex comes in.
