Your current age and the fact you are working part-time is irrelevant for determining how an employer feels about the matter.
What matters is that you apply for jobs you are qualified to take on and that you continually upgrade yourself to be ready for more challenging job opportunities.
Working part-time provides you the opportunity to work on building your marketable skills.
It’s helpful to think in terms of a career i.e. a particular field of work, rather than a series on unconnected jobs. Sometimes, it can be a matter of taking on part-time jobs that lead to a desirable one.
Think positive! There is a good job out there waiting for you to be ready to take it on.
