No draft with the lodgings, at least not yet. [ is he joking?? who knows. ] There is a small stipend to take care of basic needs at first, but it is expected that eventually you will have to earn your own way.

[ the phrase 9-5 probably isn't as much of a thing in the star wars galaxy, but cassian can infer enough about it anyway. ] There are quite the variety of jobs available, depending on where your interests or skills lie. You do not have to sit at a desk all day, if it bores you. For example, I work maintenance. It is not quite freelance, but in conjunction with all of my housemates, it is enough.
