I'm a freshman at a target school. Starting later this week and extending into the end of summer (I'm staying at uni for summer courses), I'll be doing a job that has no relation to finance (what I want to head into). Basically, I will be on the maintenance crew for the campus recreation building. Also, there is no reason that I need to do it. I have no financial troubles and my parents are perfectly capable of supplying me with money. I would just like to earn some cash myself and feel like I'm making worthwhile use of my time here at college, other than just studying and partying.
Would you recommend that I write about it under my work experience because it doesn't seem to have any lay over with finance? Also, I'm not sure what I would write to describe it to make it seem interesting or cool (the area where people generally write "created XYZ model which help generated X revenue")?
From what I hear, working (any job) while in school is looked upon favorably, especially if you're not involved in a bunch of other extracurriculars. You're a freshman as well, so it could fill up the (understandably) empty space on your resume.
Go ahead and put it on there, no need for a huge gap in employment history.
I would list it. Shows that you can handle multiple engagements at once. Just make sure you kill your coursework as well and maybe joining some relevant ECs at school.
List it - doesn't have to sound interesting or cool. And find a way to spin it other than "I just want some cash."
list it because you can talk about how you handled jobs and school at the same time...great stuff
