Should the Saudi PIF invest in Nike?

The foremost reason why KFUPM students should obtain part-time jobs is to increase job

opportunities. Part-time jobs help students form realistic conceptions of the work environment. This

gives them a better understanding of the nature of work and renders them preferable workers due to

their awareness and competence. According to Maverick (2015), eight out of ten business owners favor

applicants with former work experience, regardless of the field. This means that students who have

taken part-time jobs are more competent in the market field than those who have not, as a result, they

are considered as high in demand, which means they have better odds of having an occupation right

after graduation. Also, part-time jobs can lead to networking opportunities which can help students

when they are looking for a full-time job. Johnson (2016) states that part-time jobs expand connections,

which leads to increased job chances. This means that part-time jobs can provide students with better

chances of acquiring prominent and distinguished positions. So, having part-time jobs can prepare

students mentally and help them build up their connections which brings about more life opportunities.
