<p>So I'm wondering if there are any maybe "not so well known" odd jobs for pay at Berkeley? For people that don't necessarily qualify for work study, people with not that much extra time, and/or not legally allowed to work full or even part time?
I have a few examples, like DSP Note-taking and DSP test-writing; are there any more that you guys know of?</p>
<p>I’m pretty sure that DSP note-taking (and all student jobs with the university) require that you are legally authorized to work in the US. They’ve consistently asked for my paperwork as part of the hiring process for student jobs.</p>
<p>That said, I used to help house-sit and feed their cats for a family in Berkeley, was paid in cash, and it was not too much work for a bit of spending money.</p>
<p>i’m currently implementing a few steps of “DSP” (=digital signal processing) on a FPGA (field programmable gate array or programmable integrated circuit) to be used in a ultra-high bandwidth, mixed-signal ADC (analog-to-digital converter). this job pays me $35/hr.</p>
<p>I used to participate in paid research studies that are about a half hour to an hour and pay $10 on average per study. The requirements to be paid are 1) you are a current student at Cal and 2) you are not participating in research for class credit.

<p>That’s quite good pay for a student. How did you find the job?</p>
