How does having a job look to Adcoms?

Applying to College

<p>My family is well off, but I still work two jobs. Will this help at all since I’m not working to pay for college or to help my family financially? In all sincerity I work because I enjoy working, and I get bored otherwise. I spend 7-8 hours a week working, and I enjoy the work; I just am wondering whether I should devote my time to something else.</p>

<p>I also haven’t spent any of the money I earned yet, so if you have any ideas I’m open.</p>

<p>Have a job is a plus, but a leadership position in a club that you are devoted to is even better in my opinion. Donating the money to put on your application will be of little benefit so I would save for a car.</p>
