    Hi All,

    I have two kids. I want to restart my career. I was in IT but now after the break i do not want to go back to IT. What are the other options available to me - i am looking for part time options. I have some interest towards accounts, is it possible to get part time accountant jobs?
    Are there any other options. I have tried out content writing, online tutoring, digital marketing, already. Please share your ideas and views

    Hi!
    What is your concern about going back to IT? Work life balance or the work itself? If you still like the field, you can start looking at Upwork and Crossover for freelance jobs that allows remote working part-time.

    Accounting probably people look for experience. You can try assisting auditors on some accountancy jobs to gain experience during this tax season.

    What did you teach online? Did you get to see this - What Can You Teach Someone Online? ?

    You can always look for manual testing jobs part time or work from home positions.
    Business analyst jobs thats short term or functional analyst jobs.
    Dont move away from IT as its better to stay and grow in one field than go all over the place.
