16/female


Question Posted Friday November 23 2007, 7:26 pm

i'm 16/female and i'm searching for a job. i'm not sure what places hire at 16, but i can't work in fast food because i'm a vegetarian and the smell of meat makes me sick. does anyone know of any other jobs i could probably get?

Pick someplace not hugely popular- you'll probably get paid more, too.

For example, Coldstone pays minimum wage and it's really hard to get hired there.
But I work at Walgreen's, get paid way over minimum wage (but commission when I work in cosmetics) and got hired right away because they really need people. Somewhere like a drugstore or grocery store can always use teenagers.
Also, just applying isn't enough. 5 days after you apply, call the place. Ask to speak to a manager, say something along the lines of "I recently applied and I'm just following up/ wondering if you wanted me to come in for an interview". This shows them that you're a go-getter (as cheesy as that sounds).
Good luck!

Maybe a good place for you to work could be at a vets office, or even at a groomers. Alot of places hire anyone over the age of 16. Also, keep in mind that discriminating because of somebodys age is illegal. So keep that in mind. Good luck.
