Here's my advice as a college junior:
If you are responsible and dependable, then apply to be a RA in your sophomore year and for campus safety or your hall to sit at the desk. These are great jobs that look good and have good pay.
If you are a book worm or humanities major, I would try the library. You meet a lot of people and get to do what you love.
If you are an athlete, PE major, or a social butterfly, I'd try to get a job in the fitness center or as an usher at games.
If you are into the arts, you can get a job for set design and for working the box office.
If you can't find anything, the cafeteria is normally hiring. And it really isn't that bad.

If you can get a job in the field you are hoping to make your career in, or something that is related to the type of career you are studying for it might give you an advantage of other recent graduates when you complete your education.
It also would have the benefit of giving you some insight into what working in the field itself is like that you might not get working by an unrelated job.
Additionally, some colleges may give you credit for an "internship" in a job that is in the field of study.
Good luck on getting a job you love, whatever it is!

I'm in my third year of college. My first year I started working in the College's library. I've been there ever since and it's the best job I could ask for. Great people and great work experience. They work out my hours around my class times so I can work in between classes. I would highly recommend looking into a job that is offered by your college. Mine is an actual paycheck, it doesn't go towards my tuition so that helps me on gas and food.

Assistanceships, research positions, internships ... you want something that fulfills as many of the following as possible:
(a) Offers money in return for your time.
(b) Offers you practical experience in the field you will eventually seek to work.
(c) Helps to encourage your interest in that field, as it applies to your work as well as studying for classes.
(d) Affords you the opportunity to learn directly from professionals in your field.
... and finally ...
(e) Potentially serves as a gateway to a career after finishing school (if you decide to go elsewhere, at least it's experience).

Try to find something inside the college or near it.
