Quick answer
Can Indian students find part-time jobs in Hobart?
Yes, within visa rules: up to 48 hours a fortnight during study periods; unlimited in scheduled breaks. At AUD 25 an hour, 20 hours a week earns about AUD 2,161 a month before tax — roughly 196% of a typical Hobart room (AUD 900 – AUD 1,300). Part-time income helps with living costs; it shouldn't be counted on for tuition.
