There are actually several places I can think of that will accept a 15 year old applicant. I have two cousins at the age of 15 in Virgina. They've both found work in Subway. You could also try Wendy's, Dairy Queen and Quizno's to name a few well known establishments. I'm willing to bet you will stand a great chance of snatching something at a local Mom & Pop pizza place. I'd also suggest grocery stores, party stores, dollar stores and a library assistant. Applying for a job at any age can sometimes be a challenge. It's really all a matter of how baddly you want, or need, the job. You will find that persistence pays off, so just try not to get flustered. You'll find something, I promise. :)

i don't immagine you'd want to work at mcdonalds. BLAHH

look for fun jobs, i had a gopher position that my uncle hooked me up with at autozone. i just went and got stuff that mechanics needed when they were in tight spots, 6.50 an hr, pleaseee i was living.

my older brother had a job when he was 14 washing cars at the dealers (5 dollars a car, about 200 cars a day). and he did that until he was 16, got the employee discount on a nice 06 charger.

his friend, was a dishwasher at a fancy hotel

and HIS sister worked doing laundry at the local hospital.

scour the ads, and look for "no necessary experience." and look for something to be proud of, not "i work at mcdonald's", not that thats a bad place, i just dont want to be tempted to eat

it's really hard to find a job, even at 16, it will be hard. But, you can do mcdonalds. Even though, I don't think I'd ever wanna work there. I heard its actually pretty nasty. But, if you don't like fast food, and don't care, then I guess it would work for you. My little brother, has a paper route. Its an hour of your time every thursday [well depending, i guess, because you don't live in the same state as me or anything] And, if you have a good route [try to get a big one] my brother makes 100 dollars a month. which is pretty good, because thats like 25 dollars an hour. Also, don't forget you can do babysitting too. (:

Mcdonalds definately hires at 15.
Big Lots is another one if you have them up north.
Umm, not many places hire until 16.
Due to child labor laws and what not.
Even then at 16 it's tough as HELL to get a job!
Just don't give up and apply EVERYWHERE you can!

Good Luck!
