No one can answer that question "exactly" without details. If you are medical student going for your PhD. If so, you'll get a work permit as part of your medical internship program and there will almost certainly be a job waiting for you. If you are an unskilled person barely able to speak French or English, then your chances of finding a job and getting a work permit are pretty much zero. What skills do you have? What type of work experience to you have? Which university are you studying at? How is your English or French? Are you looking for work over the summer or part time work while going to university? Does your university program have a coop (which accepts foreign students) or does it have some type of work study program? Is this a graduate program or undergraduate program (can you work for a professor in say research)? Are you looking for reasonable pay or merely work experience (i.e. go work for a charity?) Have you lived in the area before? Do you have family or friends to help you source jobs? How much time do you have to look for a job, etc. In terms of getting a work visa while you are student, it fairly easy if the job is related to your school work, if it is on campus (many jobs there don't even require a visa), or if you have a valid job offer. In terms of finding a job... that comes down to your skills, training, experience, where you are, the type of job, etc.

Usually a student is allowed to work around 20 hours a week while on a student visa. Difficulty in finding one depends on which city/town your university is in. Most succeed providing their English (or French) is intelligible.
