In order for job market students to be more competitive and easier to adapt to working conditions after their graduation, it is common for them to work, require knowledge, work habits and responsibilities during their studies and adapt to the working conditions they are expecting after studying. However, as it is know that students are not limited by the law of the contracts as much as they can work, the question is asked “how do students coordinate their working hours with faculty commitments”. Therefor, the goal of this study was to examine the compliance of student work with faculty obligations and how it affects on carrier development. The survey was conducted over the internet where 357 regular students of University of Split participated in the Split Student Center. The applied instrument was a questionnaire on student compliance with studies development and career development. It has been shown that students work almost full time, mainly for the purpose of meeting their regular living expenses and acquiring work habits and responsibilities, and as such jobs negatively affect the performance of student obligations at faculties. However, this fact needs to be taken with caution as it is further accepted that their students jobs contributed to the success of studying and developing career through acquiring work habits and responsibilities, more if they are jobs from their study profession where they acquire additional knowledge. The obtained results have expanded existing knowledge of student jobs on a sample of regular students where it is desirable that students work, but it should be noted that excessive workload can negatively impact on overall education and the study success. Therefore, we expect that the government increase its role in regulating student work, as well as in providing more grants in the sense of tuition or some incentives to make part of the students income compensated.
