Some people like to say the idea of a career is dead in today’s economy. You see it so rarely, it seems to be the privilege of a few.

But in reality, that’s not how it works at all. In fact, there are always new opportunities to start careers and, often, make a lot of money at the same time.

But which careers could you literally start tomorrow?

User Testing

If you wanted to get going quickly, you could take a look at user testing. Trialling products and services as someone outside of an established business is one of the best ways to earn an income quickly.

The only real qualifier here is that you need to give detailed feedback. Companies are looking for people who can tell them helpful ways to improve their products and services, so always bear that in mind.

Truck Driving

For something a bit more manual, you could opt for truck driving. Many people earn a lot of money in this line of work, especially when they commit to putting in the miles.

You can get truck driver qualifications pretty easily these days. Most people are qualified fast and ready to hit the ground rolling. You can also drive a van beforehand if you want to gain experience and get started faster.

Mobile Hairdressing

Changing angle again, you could also start a mobile hairdressing career tomorrow if you wanted to. Again, these can be highly lucrative because people getting their hair cut remotely is in such high demand these days.

Mobile hairdressing is something you can start as long as you have the skills to do it immediately. Try offering high-value options, like hair extensions and colors. These can bring in a lot of money quickly and allow you to potentially replace your existing income if you have one.

Taste Testing

If you have any experience in food tasting or connections to the industry, this is also a job you can pick up quickly. The requirement is that you have a highly refined palate. You should be able to tell producers what they’re getting right and wrong whenever you try their products.

Sometimes, they’ll ask you to specifically taste different items and then let them know which you think is the most expensive, or which has certain flavors. If you can pass these tests with flying colors, you’re well on your way to landing consultancy roles, some of which can pay a lot of money.

Counselling

Finally, if you like being around people and you have a lot of life experience, you might want to consider becoming a counselor. These professionals are there for people when they go through difficult or challenging times in their lives.

The first step in these gig jobs is basically to listen to the client. Then, after that, once you become more skilled and established, you can begin to move onto things like offering help and guidance. Try not to move too quickly in this career so you can build up the necessary skills.
