If you’re looking for a part-time job, side hustle, or whatever you want to call it, check out these legit options we researched for you.

Get judge-y: Companies find out how well their websites work by hiring evaluators to give them feedback. An excellent place to start looking for evaluator jobs is Appen. They have jobs in language and AI training, too.

In your PJs: You can make up to $30 an hour as a virtual assistant. Find employers looking for full-time or part-time assistants on sites like Zirtual.com and FlexJobs. And hey, no gross office coffee!

Better than a garage sale: It pays to sell stuff on Facebook Marketplace and eBay. Many people make a full-time living (or side hustle) photographing items, writing descriptions and arranging sales. Use this (free!) guide to get started.

Cue James Bond music: Secret shoppers help stores assess stocked shelves, correct markings and customer service. It won’t make you a millionaire, but you can sign up through Field Agent. I did it once! It was fun and easy.
