Finding a job in high school can be very overwhelming, but it’s a great way to start earning some cash for college and start building a resume. Here are some tips to help you get started!
where to apply
A lot of places have some sort of age requirement in addition to the general age required by law, so the best way to find out what the specific requirements are in your area is to call before applying. Some places to try:
Fast food restaurants (typically hire at 14)
Other restaurants (Varies)
Retail shops (From my experience 17+)
Grocery stores (Typically 14, and are almost always hiring)
Target (16)
Starbucks/local coffee shops (16/varies)
Work for neighbors/family friends (any age)
Babysit
Yard work
Walk dogs/pet sit
Organize closets
etc
Ask around for jobs specific to your area!
how to apply
You first step is to get an application – do a quick search online as most companies have paperless applications, but actually going by and asking the old fashioned way works too, plus you get a chance to talk to current employees and maybe make an impression on the manager.
Start filling out the application as soon as you get it, and if you’re like me you may want to have a parent close by (”moOOOM what does ssn mean? do i have one of those?”)
What to put for previous work experience:
If you don’t have any, that’s okay! They’ll understand that you’re young.
Volunteer work – soup kitchens, animal shelters, etc
Don’t discount the little things though – babysitting, mowing lawns, etc all count.
Who to put as your references:
People you’ve worked/babysat for
Teachers
Coaches
Pastors/church leaders
People you’ve volunteered for
Basically any responsible seeming adult that knows and likes you can work for this (*just not family members!)
interview tips
Have answers on deck for the following questions which you’re pretty much definitly going to be asked;
What’s your greatest strength/weakness? (have a couple ready)
What are your pet peeves?
Do you work well with others?
What makes you qualified for this job?
Why do you want this job?
Do you have any questions for us?
Hint: YES, yes you do. Make some up if you have to. Just try to seem interested.
Depending on the job you’re interviewing for, you may not have to dress up, but you need to dress nice.
Get there early
Be nice to the receptionist
Keep a smile on yo’ face
*but not in a creepy way
Be polite - say please, thank you, yes sir/ma’am
Sit up straight!
Don’t sweat it – it seems really scary but seriously try to relax
Do some research on the company if you think it will help
Be yourself! (the professional version, that is)
Relax!!
Seriously, you’ve got this!

Bedroom Walls - by me
Our love is pure when it’s locked in those four bedroom walls.
The sweet taste of innocence is saved throughout the mundane days and is only unleashed during our deserted nights together.
Shower me in that taste , drown me in our love.clumsy teenage love, my own love.
Every insecurity feels like the size of an a eyelash when I’m wrapped in my lovers arms.
