I'd very much appreciate advises on getting a part time job as a student here.

Hi guys.

I'm an 18 year old high school student living here in Qatar. I was wondering if there was a way I could get a part time job without a contract or anything. I've been living here in Qatar for over 5 years, and I've always wanted to get a part time job, but my Father always told me that it would be difficult because of how strict they are in Qatar. I've always been good with computers and routers, I can diagnose/repair almost any issues with routers and software problems with computers. I help my Father at his office every now and then and I used to have a part time job there helping him with any issues he had regarding connection, router and computer or just helping around the office with anything. 

I speak fluent English as well as both of my native language (I'm half Moroccan and Filipino).

I've never had a part time job before besides the one I had at my dad's office, and I was wondering if I can somehow get a part time job somewhere? Advices would be very much appreciated.

It is hard to get jobs here as a student unless you have connections. Have you looked at volunteer or internship programs? Most internship programs don't pay, but it gives you some good work experience.
