Q: Can a university student work in a summer camp job?
6 years 46 weeks ago in Business & Jobs - China
Actually you can legally work any job you want as a student, but this only applies to you the OP
Legally....no (Unless the school with your contract is doing one). BUT....I have been working summer camps for over four years. In fact, I am working at one now. You are considered an unpaid volunteer who gets reimbursed for travel and other expenses. It is never called a salary. It is never contracted. Just make sure that you are with an established camp that has guanxi with the local authorities.
Legally, Yes and No.
if you are on X2 Visa, this is not permitted.
If you are on an X1 visa, you need to first get an authorization letter from your school for internship or Part time job, then you take this letter along with your passport to the PSB, they will add a remark on your student visa to allow you to work/internship.
The school will usually give you this authorization after you present an internship agreement with your company. Try to match your studies with the job descriptIon of your summer camp.
