Finding part-time jobs in Eindhoven can be challenging, especially if you do not speak Dutch. Most restaurants, cafes etc. will require you to speak Dutch, but it is possible to find places that do not; though Dutch language skills will always be a plus. Among others, Hubble and both SPAR supermarkets on Campus, employ non-Dutch speakers.

Thankfully, the TU/e provides many opportunities for employment to non-Dutch speakers, and also provides resources for finding employment at outside parties.

Student Assistantship

A student assistant at the TU/e is a term used for a wide variety of jobs. You can apply to be a student assistant for a course you have previously passed, helping the professor with grading or tutoring. This usually requires you to have a high (7+ depending on the course) grade from the course, but often this requirement is loosened if many assistants are required. The university will often email you about open positions in courses you have passed, but it is a good idea to speak to the professor of a course if you are interested in an assistantship.

More information on the TU/e website.
