Hiring teens is difficult on the employers because of the legal restrictions placed on employers. Teens can only work so many hours per day and week which makes it difficult to schedule them. Your best bet for employment is in your own business using your skills and working your own hours and setting your own salary.

I started working when I was fourteen. A lot of places will not hire  you when you are thirteen, and if you have to buy a car because your  parent s won't buy you one, then you need to start saving at 14

You could try the local newspaper office. They are always looking for kids to sell subscriptions, deliver newspapers, or other things. Also, you might want to try a workforce center in your town - they might not be able to help you given your age, but they can point you in the right direction. As for the babysitting thing, why don't you get your mom's permission and hang up flyers at your church (if you go) or at mom/dad's work (if they will allow you to do so)? It sounds like you have a good head on your shoulders. Keep your head up, you'll get it. Good luck!

you need to obtain an application from the place you want to work.. usually, you'll need parental approval - you're under 16 yrs of age.

At 14, you are limited to the type of jobs you can do.  Most employers won't hire anyone under the age of 18.  Since your are under 16, the US Child Labor law even prevents you from getting too many hours, especially during the school year.  You cannot work past 8 pm and good luck trying to get more than 10 hours a week!  The only places that you might get a job is at a resturant (fast food being the norm) or a sales position (mainly cashier.)\n\nIf you worked at a family farm though, the Child Labor law doesn't protect you there!

how bad do you want to go?  got anything you can sell?  video games? cds? otherwise, you've got till april, that's not impossible.  at 14, you can't do too much, but try asking your folks for money if you agree to do certain tasks (especially things you don't usually do), or get a job babysitting or walking dogs (ask your neighbors if there is anything they need done too).

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.

If your 16 and need a job, there a lots of ways to go out and look for a job. You could just go walk into to a place and ask if there hiring. You could look on- line. The best thing to do though is to look in the newspaper, call ahead for a meeting, then amaze them! The most important thing of all is to act like you really want the job, AND DONT BE SHY!

At that age, work under the table at some Mom & Pop store.  Maybe an ice cream stand.  Maybe babysitting?

My daughter is a manager at payless in Indiana. I dont know if they have an age limit though i think the states limit is 16. However in most cases younger people are so unreliable that they even have trouble keeping college kids working. They couldnt possibly have a person your age be alone in the store due to the stores insuance. Most Payless stores only hire people who have a work record  and have already been proven capable and honest with money. The burger chains all hire teens, grocery store baggers and so on. Get some experience behind you, and maybe in a couple of years Payless will give you a try. good luck

I am a Marketing and Sales manager in Durham, NC.  I have been with the company 4 years.  I get paid based upon performance (commission).  My salary ranges per month from $3,200 to $4,700 plus I have a company car and legal benefits.  I have to pay for my own fuel and food while on business travel.  However, the car is paid for thru the firm.  I am not at the level yet to earn bonus money and it is my goal for that to happen.  Web address is www.mydebtfreedate.com/consumer

Most people don't hire at that age with out a work permit. But you could try a bus boy or girl or something. Good luck.

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.

I think it depends where you live. Usually the youngest age places hire people are either 15 or 16.

This question would be much easier answered if you told us where you would like to live!!  Salaries vary greatly among states.  Within states, districts try to be competitive by offering incentives and bonuses. If you're interested in North Carolina, you can go to: http://www.ncpublicschools.org/salary_admin/salinfo.htm\nYou'll be able to find basic salary information at each state's superintendent's office.\n\nThe best site that I know of to launch an national teaching job search is: http://www.teachers-teachers.com/\n\nGood luck!!\n\nHave an AWESOME day!!\n\nCosmicKelly :)

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
