I am 13 years old, I live in Australia and I would really like a job. Could anyone tell me what to search for on google if I want to apply for a flyer distribution company? Or can anyone suggest a job that would be better for me? Loads of people have suggested baby sitting but my parents will not let me.
Please help me!

First of all look at http://www.thesource.gov.au/
A great site based for young people. 12 - 25 yrs old.
Generally it is 14 1/2 to work, but you can work earlier as long as your have your parent’s permission.
Coles, Woolworths, IGA, K-mart, Target, Big W, The Warehouse.
Any fast food places, McDonalds, KFC etc - they all take on casual staff.
Smaller takeaway shops, like Pizza, Pasta etc... they are always taking on delivery persons and need kitchen hands....
- Most of the places above you apply online on their websites, look for a link 'careers' or 'employment'. You fill in what area you want to work etc, and they will email you jobs coming up, you can pick and choose, if you accept they will call you in for an interview.
As for pamphlet delivering in your area, it's really word of mouth is the best way for a job there. Why not have a chat to the person delivering your junk mail next time, or if you see any of them in the street, just stop and ask. They probably did the same thing to get the job and will be willing to help out
Good luck

The best way is to offer to volunteer at this age. This will get you experience for when you want a paid job. Maybe you like animals and could help at a shelter or maybe an old peoples home reading to the elderly. Look up 'volunteer jobs' on the internet. If you prefer to work, I found out that you can legally work 4 hours a week at the age of 13

In Canada you will get a good number of activity as a teenager. you may in step with probability do a storage sale, that would get you massive dollars and occupy quite it sluggish. infant sitting too, till you do unlike childrens :) dogs sitting or puppy walking. Mowing lawns, doing a bake sale or a lemonade stand. good success. P.S. while i became 13 which became final year. i attempted a good number of diverse jobs and the main efficient you would be able to be storage sale and bake sale. no longer probable with the baby sitting by way of fact maximum mothers and fathers did no longer have faith a 13 year previous with their childrens. wish this helped.

Usually you need to be 14, but you may be able to get a paper route. You would have to do it in the morning before school though.
