There are few opportunities out there for minors, especially on the web. Your best bet is to look at the "jobs" or "careers" link on any of the pages you visit (even Google or Yahoo) and see if anything fits your criteria.

First of all, you need to go to college and get a degree in Journalism. But try to get involved in as many things as you can. Write for school newspaper (and preferable, move up to be an editor or some other high position). Write for a local newspaper. Get an internship at a real newspaper or magazine, and make lots of contacts. But also keep being a well-rounded person: have a few hobbies that are unrelated to journalism and pursue them. Hope this helps!

Go to college and get a degree in jounalism, write for the school newspaper (high school and college), get an internship at the local newspaper - maybe while still in school, then apply for some jobs when you graduate.

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.

try a music store or video store-  at 15 its hard to find a fun job but there is always a fast food place or coffee type shop.  You could always try to get into a grocery store and help stock shelves or hey... the coolest job I had at that age was working in the theatres at night and on weekends.  That was alright and I got free passes to any new movies that came out.

Summer camps are the best work for minors.  Otherwise you could try an ice cream shop or babysitting.

Go to a school that has a media department or TV station. I would recommend Columbia College in Chicago. While you are in school get several internships at TV stations and production houses. You will really have to network to get those positions. Most of them are free-lance.

you can look for a job in tv or radio, be a writer, broadcaster, teacher, events coordinator, actor, etc.

Yeah, McDonalds.  Generally speaking, 17 year olds can't get good jobs.  So I would try restaurants and retail.  They are pretty much always looking for people.  You should work on your grammer if you want to represent yourself well in an interview:  its "Does anyone know....?", not "Do".

I would check the classifieds, especially if there is a college with a paper of their own nearby.  Also, Monster.com and Fastweb.com are very helpful for finding jobs for youth.  Other places to look are retail stores and restaurants (before 18 you can only be a greeter at the front).  I'm not sure of jobs specific to your area, but these are pretty good places to check...good luck!

Hi Coola,\nYour best bet is to subscribe to the journals and newspapers you are interested in working with. Then, start sending "letters to the editor" to interact with the articles published.\n Over a short time, You should see whether or not they are interested in playing ball with you or not. If your eyes are not open to the subtle replies you get then, you aren't smart enough to get the job.\nTrevor

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.

There probably isn't an easy way, but there are lots of opportunities.  Fast food restaurants hire lots of teens; many grocery stores use teens for baggers.  When I was 16, I sold photographs to the newspapers.  Any kind of work experience will make you feel better about yourself and will enhance your qualifications for future employment.

I would go for the University degree, but try to get a part-time job at a paper too, or maybe work freelance. A lot of degrees also offer work placements now, my flatmate at uni did a journalism/media degree, did a 2 week work placement in her final year for a local magazine, and is now working there permanently.\n\nUniversity degree will educate you in the different types of Journalism styles and give you a good grounding.
