Part Time Jobs in India - By: SC Mishra

First things first, why are you looking to take up a part time job? Is it because you want to break away from the routine and regularity that an every day job brings? Is it because you already have a job and are looking to earn extra money for whatever reason? Is it to constructively use your spare time? Is it because you are studying and want to earn your own cash on the side, or help your parents out with the finances for your family?

Generally speaking part time jobs are a type of employment where you only end up working for a small part of the day or as much/ little as you can afford to work around your existing schedule. Timings are not fixed in every case, and for the most part you get to choose whether you want to work nights, between 12 and 3 in the afternoon or whatever timing suits your convenience. Part time jobs almost always pay by the hour (per word or article if you’re a writer, per page if you’re doing a data online entry job, or in a sales and marketing job you could be paid a certain percentage/ commission of the income you generate, etc)

Surveys have shown that the people working most on part time jobs are none other than the housewives and homemakers. Taking the responsibility to keep themselves productive while managing life at home, these woman have been able to work at professional jobs – albeit from home – and hence, they can earn their families a steady stream of income. Tough or not, these women seem to be able to balance work and home life well.

There is of course the age factor with part time work. Senior citizens retire, and in an attempt to keep themselves and their minds busy, they take up a part time job. It is especially beneficial to the company in this case, as the senior person has years of experience that they bring with them to the job. It doesn’t necessarily pay as highly as a full time job, but it is a dignified way of supporting themselves and staying busy.

You can find ads for available part time jobs online, in local classifieds and other job advertisement areas. Sometimes there will even be posting in local shops and supermarkets.

Perhaps one of the best benefits of taking up a part time job is that you can take several part time jobs simultaneously, or even alongside a regular full time one and thereby earn yourself or your family some extra cash.

This trend is no longer only unique to western countries. Indian citizens are not far behind in finding or posting part time jobs. Online data entry jobs are great for part time solutions. There is no end to the part time job vacancies in India. From IT jobs, to main frame jobs, to telecom jobs, to just about anything, you can find a part time job in just about every sector.
