A worker's permit is needed to be employed as a minor between the ages of 14 - 17. The minimum age varies by state, so you will have to check to know for sure. Even if the age to work can be as young as 14, many states have provisions as to the type of labor and the amount of hours worked that are allowed. Other provisions include the number of hours allowed worked during school days & hours of the day that can be worked.

I actually found out through a friend how to apply.  I was 20 years old, going to school and my dad said "you know you should find out what it's like to go on an interview"  he said you don't have to take the job just see what it's like.  So I filled out a application , they called for a interview and within 2 weeks I was sitting at my new desk where I've been for 16 years now.

Work permits are obtained from your school; they can answer all of your questions, and you do need a work permit because of your age.  Good luck!

It simply means that decisions about who the company hires are based only on the qualifications of the applicant. They won't take into account your sex, age, religion, handicaps, race, color, marital status, or criminal record. BUT you still have to be a certain age to work. Usually it's 15 years old (with restrictions.)

Of course you can get a job at 15 I live in Louisville, Ky, I have a job and i just turned 15 in September I just quite though.  Wendy's accept 15 year olds and subway also. There are also other jobs besides fast food where you can work.  I the job requires you to be 16 you can get a workers permit from you school counselor. go to www.jobsforyoungteens.com

16 for most jobs, some I would assume 18, and even others 21.  Just depends on the job.

Here are some suggestions:\n-Grocery Store Bagger/ Caryout\n-Fast Food (McDonalds, Wendys etc.)\n-Independently owned businesses (Mom & Pop stores will usually hire young people as cashiers, stockers etc., )\n-Newspaper Carrier\n-Restaurant (Dishwasher etc.)\n\nALSO try the carts at a mall, those little specialty shops in the main hall, those are owned by ordinary schmoes, who usually need some help.\n\nSTART WITH ONE OF THESE JOBS, and when you become 16 and 18, you have work experience at a job, and you could start out as a secretary or something else. If  secretary is not your career path, your computer skills wont get you far as a teenager. I am 14 myself and have taken computer classes at HS, but an office wont hire at 14, so I got a job today at wendys, therefore I will have my feet wet in the world of work.

I'm guessing you're too young to get a job (or you wouldn't be asking).  Babysit, mow lawns, go to stores for people, paint or clean houses, wash cars, be a camp counselor or a junior life guard.  There are a few places of business that will hire under 16 - like some ice cream shops.

You have to be 21+, but in some cases they might consider 18. Alot of them though, they prefer you to be over 25 for obvious reasons.

I would check with local employers about whether they would consider hiring someone that young... even with working papers most employers will only hire someone 16+, there are so many restrictions on employers of minors that a lot of them will not do it just because of the hassle.

Probably not, and very few companies will hire anyone under 16 because of all the red tape involved with hiring someone that young. Plus, 14 year olds are usually too immature (like 16 year olds are better) for holding down a job.

Yes it can be hard to find a job at your age expicially if you are attractive oddly enough.\nDo not dress sexy at all. That mean your shirt comes up to your neck and your dress is just below your knee.\nA 17 year old girl has a lot of sex appeal and that is all they see.\nYou live in an area that is economically depressed so there is a lot of competition for jobs.\nYou sound like you are very good at listing your good points and abilities.\nYou just CANNOT GIVE UP EVER.\nThis is hard I know but never stop trying. NEVER STOP!\nList yourself with a temporary employment agency.\nThey will put you into a temporary job that may turn into a full time one.\nIt is much easier to get a job with a temporary agency.\nI mean an agency that places temporary employees.

Teens can work at 16. Just need a permitt which is easy to get. Do a search type in Child Labor Laws and your state to find out how to get one. Also in some states the min age without a permit is 16 others 18. it all depends on the start. \nhttp://www.doli.state.mn.us/childlbr.html\n\nhttp://www.dwd.state.wi.us/er/labor_standards_bureau/child_labor_laws.htm\n\nhttp://www.dol.state.ga.us/em/child_labor.htm\n\nhttp://www.dol.ks.gov/ES/html/child_DEE.html

Your best bet is to call around because usually most places hire at age 16, but some will hire you at 15. Try grocery stores, restaurants, retail stores, fast food restaurants. If these don't interest you, you could mow lawns over the summer for people in your neighborhood or you could babysit.
