Part time jobs in New Delhi

Delhi, the political and diplomatic centre of India - the age old capital of the country, is a city of opportunities for the intellectually striving and like they say, conniving. Yet, there are plenty opportunities out there for the part time job seekers. It is all about going out there looking for it, after nothing simply falls in the lap.

One of the highest paying part time jobs in New Delhi is that of translation and interpretation. With all the foreign diplomat headquarters housed in the city, a large number of foreign nationals keep visiting the city. Since they do not know Hindi, or other Indian languages, they need someone, who can constantly interpret what they have to say. This is a part time job and the interpreter needs to be around, as long as he/she is need. Interpreters are paid very well, by the hour.

Another part time opportunity is that of writing and editing. A large number of publishers are located in New Delhi - general, as well as educational. They assign work to authors who can write books in their spare time. However, one needs to be careful when taking up such assignments.

Apart, from the above mentioned part time job opportunities, there are also such jobs in the BPO and KPO industry, where one can work only a few hours a day, or for only some part of the month. There are also opportunities for consultants, as well as for students in the malls, departmental stores and boutiques.
