The Curse of Having a late Birthday... I really want to get a summer job but all the places i look want someone who is 16+ and i am 15. I did not actually go to the actual places but looked them up online. Is it possible to persuade a business to hire a 15 year old or should i just wait until next year. I would love to know if there are places that would be more inclined to hire someone my age.
if this helps:
-i have a 3.3 GPA
-only been absent once since my high school
-i am in the national honor society
-i take the most challenging courses they offer for sophomores at my school
Thank you in advance!!
i live in a suburb of Baltimore if that helps any

It really just depends on the business. Most businesses do wait until people are 16+, but some are willing to make exceptions. It varies from place to place, but i know there are a few places near me where you can get a job at 15. I would suggest just going in and asking a bunch of places, but looking them up online is good too..
Also...i'm pretty sure the grocery grain Publix hires at 15. I'm not sure if you have one near you or not. ]
Most jobs will only take 16+ , but there are many jobs that take 14+ too. Here's a few:
*Babysitting - may not be your cup of tea, but the pay is good
*Some small corner shops - Where i live there is a shop that accepts 14+ that don't need experience
*You could help tutor younger kids, to help them with exams - People will pay if they think it will help their kid to good in exams
Hope this helps, and that you get a job you like :D ]
