Im 15 this May and wondering what jobs are out there at that age. I do a paper-round at the moment but apparently at that age some places will take you on, any ideas?
Thanks

there is loads available that you can do,although none of it is particularly inspiring.
you will end up being offered remedial jobs like shelf stacking and washing up!!
the best place to go for advice and to see what is available is your local connexions office (I'm assuming you are UK)
they specialise in employment for your age group so will know all the laws in relation to working hours, and what you can and cant do. they should also have a vacancies board for you to look at which will specify age required!
good luck and i wish you all the best.

Given your verbage I am assuming you are from the UK. I don't know labor law for Europe. In the US with a work permit you can work fast food, retail, and general labor.
A work permit in the US allows minors to work but only limited hours. Good luck finding a summer job. I would advise fast food or retail. If you are a good swimmer get certified as a lifeguard.

my sister is 15 and she has had a few jobs. you will get one youve just got to keep asking. Go into all the local shops not the big name ones normally the smaller family type run businesses may take you on. family hotels, pub kitchens. grocers that sorrt of thing. depends where you live.

Hi Cameron,
I think your best bet is shop work, or maybe general asistant at your local leisure centre if that interests you.
Try agencies like Manpower or Blue Arrow that offer casual temporary work. Good luck.

Check with your school councilor, and Chamber of Commerce in your area. You,ll need a work permit for some jobs and that will come from your school board.

Don't get a JOB, it stands for "Just over broke", instead go grab a book "Think and grow rich" by Napolion Hills, and read it 10 times!

What about asking at your local shops to see if they need Saturday staff? We "employ" 2 girls who are 14 and 15
Good Luck and well done you for wanting to work!!
