AfroTech

Magazine & newsFreeTechnology & Ethicsafrotech.com

A media platform covering Black professionals in technology, with news, career content, and conference programming.

Why I recommend it: One of the clearest places to see who is building and hiring in tech beyond the usual coverage. The career section is more useful than most tech media.

Job Boards

SkipTheDrive

Remote job board with no registration and no charge to search. It has a dedicated Part-Time Jobs page and categories including IT and software development.

Why I recommend it: Free and simple. As with any board, apply only on the employer's own site and never pay to apply.

GigSmart

Free account for temp, part-time, full-time and on-demand work. No interview or résumé needed. Its page says W-2 shifts pay in 1 to 2 days and that it serves all 50 states.

Why I recommend it: One of the broadest lists on the page, with no résumé needed, which is useful when you don't want to rebuild one. Read each posting to see whether it is a W-2 or contractor shift.

Amazon Flex

Delivery driving with your own vehicle in blocks you choose in the Flex app. Requires age 21+, a driver's license, a qualifying vehicle and a smartphone. Amazon cites typical pay of $18 to $25 an hour.

Why I recommend it: Expect vehicle costs (gas, wear, insurance) to come out of that range. The page doesn't mention background checks, pay timing or contractor status, so read the terms before you sign up.
