Im looking for a job and im 16 a high school student going to the 11th grade?

mcdonalds will always hire.





working in the restaurant business will be good. either as a hostess or a busser








there aren't very many options for a 16 year old especially since your still in high school. many employers don't like to hire high schoolers unless if you have an extremely good resume.

I tried different places such as stores like KMart (they didn't have WalMart, yet) and other stores in the mall when I was your age. %26lt;I ended up getting a referral thru a friend to work in an amusement park.%26gt;





What you should do is to go into the store and either ask for a manager or where the Human Resources department is (be friendly, but NOT FAKE FRIENDLY AND DON'T GO INTO THE BUSINESS WITH YOUR FRIENDS) and then ask if they are accepting applications and then, if they are, fill it out completely %26lt;you don't have to have job experience to get a job because they consider it to be an 'ENTRY-LEVEL position', but if you ever babysat for a neighbor, etc, put it down as Job Experience and list the Reason for Leaving as: It was on an AS NEEDED basis.%26gt;





While businesses are NOT suppose to base a position on Age (although they can say that you have to be a minimum age of 16, 18, etc.), Sex, Race, etc., if you present yourself in a professional manner, sometimes, they will call you in for an interview.





You can also ask your friends and neighbors if they know of a place that is hiring.





Some of the places you could try are: Department stores, car washes, neighbors with young children who might need a sitter or even your school counselor might have a reference resource for you to try or maybe you could check with some of the nearby elementary schools after school starts and maybe you could tutor some of the younger kids in subjects you are good in.





Good Luck.
Reply:work as a cashier (basically anywhere that doesn't require being 18 will accept you).


This could include places like the ice cream store, the grocery store, a knitting/sewing store, a shoe store. Lots of options available to you. A lot of the high schoolers I know who have jobs are cashier at some type of store.





Be sure to get a work permit (as this is required for every worker who is under 18). You can usually find them at your local high school.
Reply:Try your local mall. Abercrombie, American Eagle, Hollister most teen apparel stores will hire you at 16. The pay is okay for a high school student living at home and if you like the clothes you can get discounts to your benefit.
Reply:where do you live? do you have any little kids stores like limited too, libby lu, etc around you? or maybe a waterpark, they hire kids who are young.
