Accountant
Accountants are responsible for the preparation, upkeep and
analyses of financial records, bills, invoices, and taxes. In addition to the
day-to-day maintenance and monitoring of financial operations, accountants must
also ensure that a company's financial systems are working efficiently and
within the scope of the law. They are expected to propose different ways for
clients to decrease costs and increase profits. Accountants should hold a
Bachelor’s degree in accounting or a related field, and depending the job they
may need to be a CPA (Certified Public Accountant). Accountants are in high
demand around tax season, which is when organizations or individuals might hire
part-time accounting support.
Computer Programmer
Computer programmers write different computer software, though
many programmers possess skills in software engineering and can troubleshoot
computer code as well, such as Java or C++. A successful programmer is fluent
in the technical, back-end of the software, while also keeping in mind the
front-end user experience. Computer programmers must have a Bachelor's degree
in computer science or similar field, though many have Master's degrees or even
doctorates, as well. According to CareerCast.com, since not all companies can
afford in-house programmers, many will resort to part-time IT expertise to
address any technology issues on a case-to-case basis.
Graphic Designer
Graphic designers work in programs such as Adobe Photoshop or
Adobe Illustrator to create graphics for a variety of purposes. Graphic
designers might work on anything; creating custom logos and font types, designing
websites and email templates, producing marketing collateral including
advertisements, postcards and banners, illustrating original digital artwork.
Though some designers work in-house for a single company, others work freelance
for a variety of clients, thus creating a strong part-time job market for
graphic designers.
Management Analyst
Management analysts, otherwise known as management consultants,
examine an organization's systems to figure out how to maximize efficiency.
Taking various factors into account, including staffing, organizational
structure, and work flow processes, management analysts strive to increase profit
by reducing costs and increasing revenue. Most management analysts have a
Bachelor's degree along with a CMC (Certified Management Consultant)
designation. However, since many management analysts work on a freelance basis,
it's important to have prior experience working in a managerial or director
role, in order to bring forth expertise as a consultant.
Market Research Analyst
It's up to market analysts to dissect market trends - what people
are buying, what they want to buy, and what they are willing to pay, for
example - and then share their learnings to help businesses better target
consumers. Although most market analysts work full-time, others work on a
consultant or freelance basis for various clients. In order to become a Market
Research Analyst, you must have a Bachelor's degree in finance or a related
field, though most companies look for candidates who have a Master's degree as
well.
Materials Mover
Materials movers, or hand laborers, transport materials without
using machines. Often working in warehouses or factories, or moving people's
belongings, they might be responsible for moving freight around a storage
facility, packing goods for shipping, unloading goods, or cleaning vehicles. In
general, these types of positions do not require a certain level of education.
However, since heavy physical labor is involved, candidates must be physically
fit and able to lift heavy objects and spend many hours on their feet.
Network and Computer Systems Administrator
Network and Computer Systems Administrators set up and support an
organization's internal networks and Internet systems, working to make sure
everyone is getting a good connection that allows them to work efficiently
online. Network and Computer Systems Administrators are also responsible for
ensuring network security. This position requires a Bachelor's degree in
information technology, computer science or a related field.
Proofreader / Copy Marker
A proofreader inspects a final draft of a document, book,
newspaper, or any other written message, after it has been edited, to ensure
there are no errors. Proofreaders must have a keen eye to find spelling errors,
punctuation errors, typos or incorrect use of grammar.
Writer
Writers produce contents for a wide range of purposes; from
websites to blogs, books/magazines, advertisements, for songs, television, movie
scripts, and more. Writers and authors could work in-house for a company or organization,
within a specific field, like marketing or media, or, they might work on a
freelance basis for various clients.
Delivery Truck Driver
Delivery truck drivers work within a restricted region to
transport goods between local warehouses, distribution centers, businesses and
households. As delivery truck drivers are restricted to trucks with cargo
containing less than 26,000 pounds, they are responsible for the pick-up,
transport and drop-off of packages and smaller goods. In order to become a delivery
truck driver, you are required to have a high school diploma. Most companies
also require a one-month on-the-job training, and you need to have a valid
driver's license and a clean driving record.
