Answer 1

Here are some suggestions:
-Grocery Store Bagger/ Caryout
-Fast Food (McDonalds, Wendys etc.)
-Independently owned businesses (Mom & Pop stores will usually hire young people as cashiers, stockers etc., )
-Newspaper Carrier
-Restaurant (Dishwasher etc.)

ALSO try the carts at a mall, those little specialty shops in the main hall, those are owned by ordinary schmoes, who usually need some help.

START WITH ONE OF THESE JOBS, and when you become 16 and 18, you have work experience at a job, and you could start out as a secretary or something else. If secretary is not your career path, your computer skills wont get you far as a teenager. I am 14 myself and have taken computer classes at HS, but an office wont hire at 14, so I got a job today at wendys, therefore I will have my feet wet in the world of work.

Answer 2

The labor laws make it pretty hard for employers to use anyone under 16. But, at least stay away from these Cashrate creeps in here. All of those work at home deals are just pyramid scams.
I'm afraid working for someone in the family is the most common way for younger ones to get jobs.

Answer 3

you can apply the job in fast food, i think thats a good start for experiance. and later on whe you older enough you can apply as a secretary in the company or bank. hope this is help you

thx
