look under employment on their web-page. Most places hire provided you have working papers, but you may not be able to work after 9pm or full time. Sucks for a kid looking for summer employment.

You can work at 15 with a work permit.

It's pretty much illegal to give someone under 16 a job, or a "real" job because of child labor laws. So some places give jobs to 15 year olds, but the laws are so strict even they can't work more than about 15-20 hours a week, so most places won't even bother with you until you're 16. \nTry getting a job helping out a parent, babysitting, or start selling things on ebay.\n\nps. I'm from Texas too :D, cept the DFW area, originally Houston.

i believe at 15 all you can do is work for a summer camp program as junor staff... you have to be 16 in ma to do anything else unless its "under the table"

Your 16 year old should be able to get a job without too much trouble...either waitressing, fast food or sales clerk.  She can also do any of those listed below.\n\nIn many states, you can not be formally employed before the age of 15. I lived in Michigan for 8 years and you do have to be 15 there.  But the 14 year old can still do:\na paper route\nmow lawns for others\nshovel snow in winter\noffer a dog walking service \nbabysitting\nhousecleaning

go to the small local bookstores, and talk to the owner...let them know you are very interested and if one of their new hires does not work out to call you.  Most of the big chains are full...but you might luck out in one of the small stores....\nin the bay area find one of the really out of the way places...not a tourist area...and look there.  Most teens look at the malls during the holidays for part time employment...couldn't hurt.\nGood luck!

Are there any amusement parks or water parks in your area?  i know that they hire 15 year olds sometimes 14 year olds with a recommendation.  It may be only to pick up trash and clean up the grounds, but it is better than nothing right?

You can have a job at the age of 15 if you get a work permit from your high school office or guidance office.  With that, you can apply at any place that hires anyone under the age of 18.  You may not get many replies because you are so young, but I worked with a girl who was only 15, and she was one of the better workers there.  In order to better your chances, you will have to include references on your application that can vouche for how responsible you are.  Also, the guidance office at your school should know of available jobs in your community.  You will probably only be able to find a job at a fast food restaurant, as a waitress, as a table busser, or working at a pizza place.  Working with fast food is not as bad as peopl think.  I worked at Burger King.  I gained friends there, and the overall atmosphere is usually very friendly, which makes it a nice place to work.  It doesn't pay well, but it's good work experience if you enjoy working with people.

I'm pretty sure it's illegal for a company to hire someone your age (I think 16 is the cutoff) so you have to be business savvy and do odd jobs wherever you can that other people don't want to do and would rather pay someone else to do for them.\n\nCan you get your parents to pay you to do odd jobs around the house that you normally are not expected to do as part of your normal responsibilities?\n\nMaybe your first lesson on this subject would be to learn to "wheel and deal".  Then once you become an expert at certain jobs, maybe you can then get friends to pay you to do those same jobs for them.  Whatever you do, it's important to become really good at that job so people prefer that you do the job instead of them doing the job themselves.  It's not good if people feel that they can do the job better than you.  You don't want people to hire you as a "favor" to you.  You want them to hire you because they know you'll do a better job at it than they will.  That will always help your pride and self-esteem.\n\nThe best part about creating your own job is that you get to choose what you will do to get your money.  Of course it has to be something that people want but you still make the final choices in the beginning.  And you can change jobs whenever you want.  It's so much better than working at one  job for someone else where they can boss you around all the time.\n\nGood luck!  And be careful dealing with people you don't know.  Be sure your parents always know what you're doing and where you're at before you do it.  They will always help keep you safe.

Child labor laws made is illegal to employ people under 15 or 16.  You best chance at getting some extra money is working doing chores for neighbors, family, and friends.  Walking dogs, baby sitting, yard work, house-sitting, etc.  You won't find a job that will cut you a paycheck because it is illegal. Since it is the Fall season, you might grab a rake, and go knocking on doors asking if they'd like you to rake up their leaves.  at $10 bucks or so per yard, you could come up with some decent money.  Good luck with the search!

Well, to tell you the truth, a 14 year old won't find a really good job. But when you turn 15 you can apply at Chick-Fill-A, they hire at 15, and so does Sonic!! Good luck!! I'll look for other places and answer if I find one!!

I would say the chances of not being scammed are slim.  However, if you are hired by the company itself then there are no problems.  Companies like Best Buy hire underage people whose job is to buy "Mature" rated games.  That kind of stuff works.  However, if you find an ad online, i would recommend that you be very cautious before giving out your personal information.

Depends on what state you live in, I worked at 14 in Idaho and 15 in Washington state.

First off is it legal to work at 14 in GA.  There are child labor laws in most states. If it is legal try the Commissary. They may let you bag groceries.

Not many hire 15 year olds.  Some are grocery bagging jobs and fast food places, but more and more places don't even want to hire people until they are 18, and the ones who do hire teens usually want 16 year olds or older.  You can try going to fast food places or grocery stores and asking.  Good luck with that, if you do.  You should also see if your school is having a job fair or career fair.  Ask your guidance counselor.  If all else fails, go door to door and ask if people would pay you to help clean.  Save money  and get a mower and hedge clippers and expand to doing yard work.  You might also try babysitting.  While you are at it, check to see if any booths at nearby flea markets or small "mom and pop" stores need help.  You could get a job moving boxes or sweeping floors.  I still advise working for yourself, though-- you can make your own hours, for the most part.  Meanwhile, learn about a trade you could do now.  A pair of twin guys from Antiques Roadshow were collecting antiques and re-selling them when whey were kids.  Good luck with whatever you try!
