Part-Time Jobs Overview
Part-time jobs typically involve working fewer than 35 hours per week, or however many hours an employer deems “full-time.” Although full-time jobs often provide more benefits—such as health insurance and paid-time off—there are many reasons you might prefer to work a part-time job.
Part-time work is often ideal for:
- High school and college students.
- People with health limitations and disabilities.
- Single parents.
- Parents who do not want to pay for costly childcare.
- People caring for aging parents.
- Full-time employees looking to supplement their income.
You can often find part-time work doing administrative jobs. You can start your search with some of the job titles below:
Part-Time Job Training and Skills
The training and skills you need to work part time depend on the type of job you’ll be doing. Plenty of part-time jobs require little or no experience. So, if you’re applying for your first part-time job, employers will look for basic soft skills such as:
- good communication.
- interpersonal skills.
- basic math skills.
- the ability to follow instructions.
- punctuality and a good work ethic.
- organizational skills.
- problem-solving skills.
Many high-paying part-time positions require experience and specialized credentials. For example, part-time nurse practitioners need at least a Master of Science in Nursing (MSN). Part-time psychologists must complete a doctoral or professional degrees and a residency.

- Tell me about yourself.
- Why do you want this job?
- What are your goals?
- Why should we hire you?
