International students at Suncrest College—often still searching Parkland College—typically balance study with part-time work in Yorkton or nearby towns, subject to study permit conditions and IRCC rules on off-campus work.

Where Students Commonly Look

Job type	Why it can work
Retail and customer service	Flexible shifts in Yorkton’s shops and services
Hospitality and food service	Seasonal and evening roles
Health and personal support	Relevant for students in care programs (must align with program rules and permits)
Agriculture and seasonal work	Regional economy includes farming and related services
On-campus or college-connected roles	Limited positions—apply early
Trades-adjacent helper roles	Some students find informal experience adjacent to their trade program

Practical Advice

• Confirm how many hours you may work on and off campus under your study permit and any campus rules.
• Prioritize academic and practicum requirements—missed hours can affect practicum clearance.
• Use Career & Student Services for résumé help and local job leads.
• Budget for transportation if work is outside walking distance; Saskatchewan winters affect commuting.

September 2026 Perspective

For the September 2026 intake, line up housing in Yorkton or your campus community early, then seek flexible employers who understand student schedules. Treat part-time work as supplemental—not a substitute for meeting English, attendance, and program standards.
