High School-ers, You're Older Now....Do Some Work!!!

 Doing a part-time job along with your studies is now very essential for every high-school student and under grad, as competition amongst different companies in several fields is becoming more and more complex. Every company needs a candidate who is very well-aware of doing a certain job perfectly, a guy who can easily adjust in a new working environment, a person who can beautifully interact with clients and who knows dealing in a business. No matter what career a student opts in future, these few capabilities can help him/her to lead towards a successful work life. Therefore, corporate sector, educational sector and even individual consultants urge high-school students to do part-time jobs without disturbing their education at all. Thus, I have tried to pick out some common yet pretty good job ideas for students like me and you. I hope you'll surely get satisfied by this collection after completely reading this text :)

• Write For A Magazine What You Love:- Many of you guys might have a hobby of writing content and loving literature like Me. If this is so, then try to make your hobby into a good part-time job where you can make not very large, but a handsome amount of pocket money. What you need to do is look around living room of your house and search for some recent magazines which you think can be a suitable platform to host your writings. But before going to write for any magazine or even any E-zine, be sure you have pretty good writing skills which can make a great impact on your audience. You've still not found any magazine to write for?? I would recommend you to go for Reader's Digest or Reader's Digest Asia (If you're living in any Asian country). RD is one of the oldest and most influential monthly magazines in almost every country. They provide stage to all good writers no matter which category of topics you decide to write on. You can write on a Tech related topic, health & beauty tips is one of highly read articles, or you can even write on politics; What you need is to be a superb writer and creative thinker because Content Is Still A King.
  
  
• Teach What You Were Taught:-
  This is very true! The best way for students to do a job is to get started as a young teacher, but this requires a lot of knowledge and most of all, good verbal and teaching skill is must. You can teach at your home even, to elementary kids or your juniors and helping out them in their school studies. Part-time teaching not just makes you a handsome pocket money(if you're willing to get it) but it really increases levels in your teaching power, communication skills and in your confidence. So it's true... search for a student in your neighborhood and go ahead guiding him at your home.
  
  
• Become A Freelance Proof Reader:-
  Proof Reading what I can say is a part of your writing skills. A proof reader edits and corrects documents and text according to standards and needs. Advertising agencies, Law & Order Enterprises, Printing Press, and many others, hire proof readers to successfully correct their documents. But most of these companies require only qualified and graduate proof readers to do their job. Therefore, I have refined freelance proofreading jobs from a huge list of several different freelancing opportunities hosted on different out-sourcing platforms for freelancers like me and many others. If you have made your mind to do this job, then here are some useful links for you to get started.
  • Freelance[dot]com
  • Elance
  • oDesk
• Show Your Creativeness & Do Some Graphic Stuff:- This is one is my most favorite because I love to take out my inner creativeness and put them on a piece of paper. As it is for myself, I really don't need to be a "Professional". So what was the only solution to it if I wanted to sell my work to others and becoming a master in it side by side??? I thought to be a freelance graphic designer, who makes illustrations, web graphics, mini-animations and similar things for his clients. And I did so...I'm now a freelance graphic designer working basically on outsourcing platforms such as 99designs and oDesk. I earn when I complete/win any graphic design or web design project. Similarly, you can also opt for the same job and make a hassle-free part-time job :)
• Well-Aware Of Computer Skills? Utilize Them...
  Yes, if you know how to fix a computer hardware problem or diagnose any computer software error, then you are a valuable worker for a computer store or any small computer company. You are even valuable to yourself too, because you can utilize your computer skills by selling your services to different customers like your friends or people you know in your neighborhood. This is quite simple to hear but you need extra-ordinary technical knowledge to configure the problems your customers will bring to you. An easy option for starting a home-based computer shop is to use your backyard store as it and placing banner advertisements at eye-catching spots. This might get a bit costly, but the outcome here will be pretty good.
• Turn Photography Passion Into A Successful Career:-
  If you love to capture photos and take beautiful snaps, and if you are really good at working in it then this option is for you. You can easily be hired by any photo studio only if you know how to make a masterpiece! What you need is to make a portfolio of your work and services. It can be a website or a manual but I would suggest you to go for a website folio. Then you need to show it off to your friends or any person involved in this field for better ideas. Look for any photographing opportunity in classified section of newspaper and prepare for it. You can find much more details and guide from Darren Rowse's Digital Photography School Blog.
  
  
• Think Of A Nice Call Center Job:-
  The last but not the least option is to go for a call center job. Actually I'm not very much in favor of suggesting this to other students, as doing this job is very tough and hassling. But I've found many students doing this so I've to include it in this list. Employees have to work from night till early morning and then return back to home for just sleeping!!! Students couldn't get enough time to study or indulge in other fun activities. Moreover, their health is affected badly as they have to work whole night till morning. They enjoy this job in beginning but feel stressful later. However, call center job gives big salary to students and bonuses and allowances in advance too!
  
  So its up to you which job you choose and why. But be sure that you don't have to disturb studies or educational life with this. I would love to hear any other suggestions and would surely try to include them in my future posts.

Gmail And Yahoo Upgrades To Something Awesome!

I'm still a big fan of Gmail and Y! mail from many years, as I used these e-mail services not only for just sending or receiving mails but also for socializing myself with the whole world in a much effective way. Recently, when I reached at the Gmail to check an important mail, I found that Google has worked to refresh its login page for Gmail. Check out the below screenshot I personally took:-

Google has designed this new login page according to its new logo and main search page. It also had used those same colors which are used in Google's homepage too.

I also found Yahoo! Mail redesigned too, 3 days before. Have a look at it:-

The new Y! Mail gives all the dynamic features to its users...some are a bit similar to Gmail. You should upgrade your Y! Mail within 30 days otherwise, it'll be automatically upgrade from the old Y! Mail interface to this new one.
