Easiest Part-time Jobs by Worldtrends: 7:26am On Nov 11, 2018
Are you looking for an easy part-time job? Whether you want a second job that’s easier than your first one, are in school and want to earn some extra money while still having time for your studies, or simply want to boost your income with a part-time job that doesn’t require too much effort, there are many options available.

Before you start reviewing jobs, remember that easy depends on how good a fit the job is. What might be the easiest job ever for you, could be challenging for someone without your expertise. What’s easy for someone else could be a job that you would never want to do. For example, if you’re a people person who loves to talk to anyone and everyone, being a product brand ambassador could be a great fit. If you’re an introvert who would rather work quietly on your own, there are other options that would most likely be a better fit for you.


Keep that in mind when you’re reviewing job options and considering which jobs you could do without working too hard. Review tips for lining up a job that fits your needs and your availability.


Top 25 Easy Part-Time Jobs
Here’s a list of part-time jobs that can be easy for job seekers to get and not too hard to do, while providing a way to boost your earnings.

1. Appointment Setter
If you have good communication skills, appointment setting could be the job for you. You’ll be setting up appointments for salespeople, either in person or on the phone. You may need to call prospective customers, or you could be following up on leads generated by the company.

2. Brand Ambassador
If you’re a friendly people person with enthusiasm, the ability to stand on your feet, and the availability to work flexible hours, including weekends, brand ambassadors communicate, give away samples, and share product benefits with prospective customers.

3. Classroom or Library Monitor
Whether it’s in a classroom, library, gym, or on a bus, a monitor is responsible for keeping order and maintaining discipline. The job requirements include strong communication skills, and the ability to work with children.

4. Customer Service 
If you like helping people, troubleshooting problems, and solving issues, a job in customer service is worth considering. There are many different roles available, and many customer service jobs involve online work so you can work from home. The schedule is flexible, so you may be able to easily work around your day job or school schedule.

5. Data Entry 
Data entry is another job that can be done either online or on-site. You’ll need to be able to type quickly and accurately. For some jobs, you’ll need specialized skills like a knowledge of legal or medical terminology. Do be aware that there are many online data entry scams, so take care to avoid them.

6. Delivery Driver
Do you have a reliable car? Do you like driving? Jobs delivering food, flowers, packages, and anything else that is delivered directly to a customer’s front door are plentiful. Some of these jobs come with great perks, like free or discounted food, auto insurance discounts, roadside assistance, and a flexible schedule.

7. Fitness Instructor 
Do you spend a lot of time at the gym? Becoming a fitness instructor is a way to get paid for sharing your healthy lifestyle. Depending on your skill set, you could provide individual instruction as a personal trainer or teach group classes.

8. Food/Product Demonstrations
Are you a foodie? Do you love to cook? Many grocery stores, product manufacturers, and speciality retailers hire part-time workers to demonstrate recipes and product tastings. If you’ve got kitchen skills, consider using them to earn some extra money.

9. Freelance Work 
Freelancing is a way to use the skills you have already developed to boost your earnings. There are many employers who don’t want to commit to adding an employee to the payroll, and freelance job opportunities are plentiful. You can work as much—or as little—as you want. If you’re not sure what you could do, browse the job postings on Upwork or Outsourcely to get some ideas. Need help getting started? Here’s how to become a freelancer.

10. Guest Services Representative
Hotels, clubs, museums, visitor centers, event spaces, children’s activity venues, and other organizations need guest services associates to help things run smoothly. You could be taking reservations, planning a party, giving a tour, or hosting an event. The hours are flexible, and you can work on an event-basis or a regular schedule.

11. Hotel Concierge
If you have the scoop on the best places to dine and things to do in your community, a part-time job as a concierge at a hotel or resort will enable you to share your advice with guests. Staffing a concierge desk is a good easy job option for someone with people skills.

12. House Sitter/Caretaker
One of the best things about being a house sitter or a caretaker is that you don’t actually have to do anything other than make sure the property you are watching is safe and secure. You may need to arrange repairs, if there’s a problem, and perhaps do some routine maintenance. When you’re working for the right client, it’s not much different than hanging out at home.

13. Market Research/Survey Caller 
One of the easiest types of phone calling jobs is conducting surveys or market research. You don’t have to try to sell anything. Rather, you’re asking questions or collecting information for your employer.

14. Merchandiser 
Many greeting card, flower, newspaper, and other specialty items in grocery stores, department stores, and pharmacies are stocked by outside vendors. Those vendors hire part-time merchandisers to replenish displays, order stock and set up promotions. The hours are part-time and flexible, and, if you can lift boxes, this is an easy job to do.

15. Newspaper Delivery
Yes, daily newspapers still do get delivered. If you have early morning availability and a reliable car, delivering your local newspaper can earn you some extra money. Phone books are (really) still delivered, as well.

16. Online Sales
There are people who make a decent living selling on eBay. There are others who use it as a way to supplement their income by selling online. If you’re crafty, Etsy is an option for selling your wares. Does your closet need a clean out? Sites like Poshmark make it very easy to sell your extra stuff.

17. Parking Attendant
The easiest parking job is a booth attendant, where you dispense or take tickets and collect fees. If you’re a car buff, valet parking might be the job for you. Depending on where you work, you may have the opportunity to park some very special vehicles. You’ll need a valid driver’s license for most positions.

18. Pet Sitter
Are you an animal lover? If you’ve got room in your home for a guest or two, you can earn money taking care of dogs, cats, and other pets while their owners are away. That’s the easiest way to do it, but pet sitters who come to the owner’s home are also in demand.

19. Retail
When you think about what makes a job easy, also think about what makes a job fun. Working for a huge mainstream retailer might not be your idea of a great job, but there are small local companies that could be an option. Think bookstore if you’re a book lover, pet store if you’re a pet lover, liquor store if you’re a wine connoisseur, or hardware store if you’re handy.

20. Rideshare Driver
Uber, Lyft, and other rideshare companies are pitched as one of the best ways to earn easy money. You can sign up online to get hired, you may be able to get paid instantly, and you can set your own schedule. Do keep in mind that you’ll need a four door reliable vehicle, driver’s license, and insurance to get started.

21. Restaurant Host
Working as a waiter or waitress is a common second job, but a host or hostess job can be easier. If you’re outgoing and friendly, can manage the guest flow if the restaurant doesn’t take reservations, and can juggle phone calls while you’re doing other tasks, this is an option to consider.

22. Salon/Spa Front Desk/Reception
Are you able to multitask? Are your interpersonal skills top-notch? Front desk positions involve greeting clients, managing a schedule, and answering the phone. You may also handle product sales and give tours to new or prospective clients.

23. Social Media Helper
Some of us can’t get too far away from our social accounts. If you’re one of those people who spends too much time on social, you can put it to good use and get paid for using your social media skills. Businesses, large and small, need help promoting their companies and engaging with customers.

24. Test Proctor
As with most of these jobs, you’ll need flexibility in your schedule. Some exams are offered on evenings and weekends, while others are online. Test proctors check identification, monitor the testing environment, report irregularities, and complete testing paperwork.

25. Tutor
If you’re a college student or teacher, tutoring jobs in your area of expertise are a way to make extra money without a long-term commitment. For most jobs, you’ll need an academic background in the subject matter you wish to tutor. You’ll also need patience and excellent communication skills.
