how can i find a summer job for a teenager?

I live in Raymore, MO and I just turned 17 in March.
I would like a job just for in the summer that is for teenagers.
I don’t want to work at a grocery store, or restaurant. I would like to work somewhere fun.

I was thinking about volunteering at a daycare, but I need babysitting classes first. Would anybody know where I could take those at?

If not, then any suggestions of a fun work place would be appreciated. Thanks!

Is it possible for a motivated french boy to find an interesting summer job in London?

Hi,
I’m French, I’ve just turned 18 and I’d like to find a summer job in London for this summer.
i’ve been twice to the US and about 8 times in England; all my trips were fairly short (except 1 month and a half in Philadelphia)
and my English is not bad, at least as good to be able to understand everything and to be understood without any
trouble.
During my trip in Philadelphia, I worked in a summer-camp and it was great to work with kids.
I come to London from june,28 to july,30 and everyone told me most of the jobs available in summer are in restaurants
and pubs. I’d like to work in as well, but do you know whether there are other job-offers?
Thank you for you answers

Any tips for finding a summer job?

Hey So I am finishing school in a few weeks (June 27th, well, months, but to me it seems closer lol) and seeing as I am finishing my GCSEs I thought this summer would be the perfect opportunity to get some work experience and earn a bit of money.
I was thinking of applying for a job in my nearest shopping centre? I was wondering if you had any advice as to what companies to avoid, how I go about giving my CV in etc etc. I was also thinking of applying at the Apple Store? Would this be a problem at all?
Thanks in advanced x

Hard time finding work for recent commerce grad – need advice?

I graduated this summer from University of Toronto for the B Comm program. My grades are average, 3.01 CGPA out of 4.0. I don’t have much experience, only worked as a sales associate for wal-mart in high school for a few months and a telemarketing job for a few months in university.

I’m having trouble finding a job and I’m interested in finance. Will it get easier once I pass level 1 of the CFA exam? I’m planning on taking the test in December this year. What can I do? I’ve had my resume looked at/edited and I’ve applied to many jobs posted at school, online, and everywhere with no luck. Any advice? How long does it take the average person to find work? I am only asking for a full time position related to finance and I don’t care about how much money I get.

Finding a job/ dealing with parents while I can’t find one?

ok, so my parents keep harassing me to find a job. Problem is, nobody is hiring. I’m out of school for summer break from college, so I don’t think anyone wants to hire me just while I’m on break from school. I’ve already tried to find babysitting jobs and I have great credentials for that but nobody has asked me to yet. I am making some money by driving this boy across the street to and from football practice. But its not a whole lot of money, and the more I drive around trying to find a job, the more gas I use. All the money from that little job has gone to gas with nothing left over. And my parents don’t consider applying online as active job searching. They’re convinced that I have to drive places and talk to people to get a job, even though I don’t think someone wants to hire me for a couple of months out of the year. And they’re not giving me any money. Any ideas on good jobs? or on how to handle the situation with my parents.

Is there a website I (a teen) could use to help me find a job?

Can Canadians find work in bars/restaurants/tourism for short periods without a work permit in Barcelona?

I’m looking for people who may have been successful finding work in Spain without a work permit, temporary jobs in tourism/bars/restaurants for a couple months, part-time. Were you paid cash? Is it impossible to find this kind of work as a non-European? I’m traveling to Spain in May for the summer.

I should find a way to convince my bf about going to Spain instead of going to LaTİN aMERİCA!!!!?

hey people,this summer me and my bf wanna go abroad for learning spanish.At the first place,we both had wanted to go to Latin America(Guatemala) but now i changed my mind.He thinks my family made me to change my mind. Because,my dad wants me to go to Spain. My bf thinks Spain is so expensive for living. Also he worries about finding a job there.He is an english teacher. I think it is not that hard to find a job as an english teacher. There should be lof of english courses in Spain. How can i convince him about going there instead of Latin america?? I wanna go Malaga. How will i tell him.We might argue again.
i haven’t found any websites which i can show my bf that there are opportunities for him in Spain.

What shall I do?

Hello, I will loose my job within 1 month, I´m working for a customer service (call center) in Barcelona (Spain) for more than 7 years… Human Resources is looking for another job for me, I rejected already 2 job positions, because my perfil didn´t match with the requirements…So it is possible that I will be unemployed by the end of April…Would you accept any dept. even that you have problems with the people who are working in that dept…or that you do not like the work, because it is borring like nearly everything in that company… I studied secretary with the languages german, spanish, french and english…..Do you think I will find another job??? In summer I would like to improve my languages and computer….Do you think I can add in my cv english knowledge advanced??? Thanks for your answers!!!

I am thinking about moving abroad to Spain i would appreciate some feedback?

Howdy people. How are we? Well let me begin, i have been thinking for sometime and i have come to the idea of finally getting around to moving abroad. I have recently got a divorce and believe it is now time to follow my dreams and finally leave my homeland.
I have been working for the past 20 years of my life in an IT role. To be quite honest, one is rather bored of this way of living. I fancy a fresh start: new jobs role, new routine, new indulgence in communication. I have done ALOT of research, I am aware that Spain as a high unemplopyment. 9 million of there 45 million are unemployed: but we have to remember that alot of spanish locals dont want to work, have to work, work in my field etc etc. .
I have read some questions and answers already on here which i find to be rather submissive! I have the charisma, drive, enthusiam to really make a go of things. “he who dares, wins”. Life is about taking risks. I have a little nest EGG that will see me good for renting a property and living for up to about 6 months.

There are ALOT of jobs going to be availble not only for the summer months as its holiday season but for new expanding business in the Gilbraltar region.

I was wondering if anybody had any PERSONAL EXPERIENCES in moving to spain, or moving to another country or living in another country etc etc: I am not interested in hearing answers from jealous, submissive, negative individuals.
I really would like some real genuine comments. If not one can offer me this then that is fine. Please do not just answer for the points.

Thanks

Leo

What names to use for these?

Please dont report, it took me a lot of time to find the photos etc thanks.

1. Your name is Olivia and you are single, just graduated college. You take a summer long internship in France, and while there you see two sisters in an orphanage. One is only a week old she has dark brown hair and hazel eyes, and is nameless. The older one is 3 years old, has curly blonde hair and blue eyes named Genevieve. You fall in love with them and decide to adopt. Give Genevieve a middle name after your mother, give the unnamed baby a French first name, and any middle name. Them when they are a bit older:

http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=9781691

2. Only 6 months later you meet a really amazing guy named Blake. He is an architect and he takes you to his family’s vacation lighthouse over the holidays.

http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=9781691

Things get a little crazy and you wind up pregnant! It is with a boy! The labor is difficult and you nearly die. Blake wants the first name to be Oliver, male version of you, middle name must have to mean or do with the ocean.

http://media.lancashiretourism.com/dbimgs/thumb/193boybeach72.jpg

3. A year later you and Blake decide to get married. Where do you get married and what is the wedding, cake, etc like? Post pics or describe!

4. You two move into a bigger house, also post a pic or describe it. Your son really wants a brother, and 2 years later he gets his wish but with one more sister!! Its twins, a boy and girl. They both have honey blonde hair and green eyes and are attatched at the hip. Also they are both summer babies. First names should both sound cheerful or have to do with summer somehow, middle names must have matching initials.

http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=9825279

5. Your husband is a bit disappointed he never got to name a kid after him, but 2 years later you wind up pregnant one last time, and it’s a boy! Also he is definitely a daddy’s boy. Of course the first name must be Blake, middle name can be anything you’d like.

http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=9476844

6. Optional: Describe, jobs, grandkids, and post photos! thanks

Starting my own European adventure?

Presently, I am a college student who loves new experiences, learning, and traveling. All of these were brought together over my summer experience studying abroad. I enjoyed touring the six countries I went to in Europe– Belgium, France, Switzerland, Germany, Austria, and Italy. I came upon the revelation today that I would actually like to live there for a year or two either after college or for graduate school. I was wondering if anyone knew how difficult this would be to do and what things I would need to do prior to going (how I would find a place to live, how I would attain a job, and things of that nature). Any monetary figures that you may know off hand would be lovely (that may be a bit of an absurd thing to ask) such as living expenses compared to here in the US. As far as work goes, I am an English major…so I don’t know what my options would be being that I know little from other languages.

Are there any exchange programs or work study programs I could possibly go though?

Immigration to Canada as a Skilled Worker?

I am an English/British citizen and it has been my plan for many years now to emmigrate to Canada. I am expecting a 2-1 for my Batchelor’s degree in Software Engineering, after which I will do a 1 year Master’s degree in the same area. I have 15 months full time paid experience in the industry. I will finish this my Master’s degree summer next year. I have the highest level proficiency in English (obviously, being English), and also a good level of French (France is only 2.5 hours away).Finally, my Dad’s brother and sister both live in Toronto, where I wish to emmigrate to.

I wish to emmigrate immediately after I finish my Master’s degree. I understand that there are long wait times (http://www.canada.org.uk/visa-info/processing_times.htm) of 4 years for permanent residence, or 6 weeks for a work permit. I have had a very good look on the official immigration website, and I believe the only avenues I have are either to wait 4 years for a permanent residence application to be processed, or to find arranged employment and get a work permit. There are fast-track immigration options for people in my industry, but that requires a minimum of 2 years full-time experience, however I only have 15 months (http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/work/itw-jobs.asp#jobs5).

So far this leaves me with applying for a work permit as my only option, is that correct? The Canadian immigration website says that for both permanent residence and work permits, the application must be made from outside the country.

So to sum up, I guess I would need to visit Toronto to go to job interviews, secure a job offer, then leave the country again and apply for a work permit?

Any other suggestions or comments you may have are very much appreciated!

Thanks
I forgot to mention, I will be going on holiday to Toronto this summer. Do you think it is worth trying to apply for a job 10 months in advance?

Also, I assume my situation will be taken advantage of by employers, and I will get a sub-standard wage in my first months/year in Canada. Do you think this is a fair statement?

Thanks

Help: What are my chances for PeaceCorps?

Hey all, before I know it, I’ll be filling out my Peace Corps application. I am a junior at a public university so I have some time before I submit it. I’d like to get some input on what my chances for Peace Corps work are. If you have any input on other things I could do to better my chances, that’d be great!

I am majoring in History, minoring in Anthropology, and my overall specialization is in International Development.

Not sure if it matters, but my current GPA is 3.71.

By the time I have graduated college, my language experiences will be:
- 4 years of college level Russian
- Possibly 1 year of Farsi or Urdu
- 3 years of high school French

I am currently on the executive board of Alpha Phi Omega, a national service fraternity. My position deals with Boy and Girl scouts. Helping with fund raising, manual labor at camp sites, planning outdoor activities, etc… But I do much more within the fraternity as far as volunteer work in the community.

This year I’ll be working under a professor doing research on foreign affairs with Russia and Eastern Europe.

I recently finished a job as an intern for a museum, handling artifacts, doing research, writing exhibit labels, etc…

Also, hopefully, I will be an intern for the Michigan Peace Team – writing news letters, doing research, going to nonviolence training sessions, etc…

This last summer I worked on an organic farm in South Africa for a couple weeks. My knowledge of agriculture is basic, but it was an experience. My only other traveling includes learning French on a high school trip to France.

Hopefully, before I graduate I will study abroad in Russia for a language program or find an internship of some sort in DC.

As far as what I’d like to do in Peace Corp, I am not set on any one thing. Education (since most of my job experience centers around writing) or Community Development.

What scares me is my major in History – how can I help out a community abroad with something abstract?

Sorry if this question is a little long!

Honestly people.. this is a long one, but I really need advice?

Okay. I’m dating my best friend. I’ve known him for 7 years, we’ve been best friends for 3 years, and we’ve been dating for just over 2 months.

He was in a long term relationship, I think for 6-7 years, something like that. His ex went to France for a year for school, and dumped him over Facebook when she got there. This was last summer.
Well, I had known that he had been depressed, but I didn’t know why. A mutual acquaintance told me the story, and I was being a good friend and I was there for him. (for reference – and yes, this is relevant – he cheated on his ex with me on several occasions almost 4 years ago, and I’ve been hopelessly in love with him pretty much since I met him. Oh, and he’s five years older than me)

Well these events brought us much closer together. Almost every night he drove over to my neighborhood and we went on walks together, and on several occasions he spent the night with me. Eventually we started having sex again, and he ended up taking me on my first date. That night, he told me he wanted to be with me (two months after his ex left) and it took a little over a week before we actually became a couple.

For the record, we’re complete opposites. He’s a theater nerd indie dude, kinda grungy and stuff. Very quiet and introverted. I’m just flat out wacky, kinda trendy, and loud.

That’s just the background information, which is necessary in this situation.

Now, I know he’s still bent out of shape over his ex. When we became a couple he said “well do you want to get hurt now or later?” (I had told him I was willing to take a chance, no matter how scared I am of getting hurt) and basically ended the subject of us becoming a couple (which btw took A LOT of discussing) with “this CANNOT affect our friendship” what is that supposed to mean? Am I the rebound chick?

He’s kind of a ladies man, and I’m ridiculously possessive and jealous. I’m mostly keeping my insanity to myself, just so I don’t ruin anything. I expressed to him my concerns yesterday, which are:
What am I to him? Rebound? Does he still talk to his ex? What happens between us when she comes back? Is he going to see her? Is he going to dump me to get back with her? I feel like I have to compete with her for his affection when she isn’t even trying; she has a new boyfriend and IS IN EUROPE.
In response to pretty much everything I said, all he responded with was “I haven’t talked to her in weeks.” …….okay!? What about everything else? He did agree that he can’t blame me for thinking that way, which I find important on his part.

Before we got together I was forcing myself to accept that it would never happen and that I just want him to be happy – with or without me. Well, now that we’re an item, I can’t quite tell what’s going on with him. I don’t want to be intrusive and ask him 20 questions, this is a new thing for me (dating a guy with a job and a car and that’s significantly older than me and that isn’t an abusive psychotic freak) and I’m walking on eggshells here, because I just don’t want anything to go wrong.

I want some insight from anyone who reads all of this – what do you see going on here? Do I have any reason to be jealous and crazy? I’ve already let my guard down – should I put the wall back up? What would you do if you were in a situation like this?

PLEASE – please give me some insight. Anything would be helpful.
Obviously I love him unconditionally. I know that it’s worth it to be with him even if I get hurt in the end – but I’m so wary of it. The last thing he wants is to hurt me, and I honestly don’t see a future for us. I’m taking the chance because I don’t want to spend my life wondering “what if?”

I want to know what people would do if they were in my shoes, or even his.

what is the best order to prepare for a big move to st. louis?

My roommate and I are supposed to be moving to st. louis at the end of the summer. She says she wants to go down and look for a job for herself before we move because I already have one waiting for me. But I think we need to find our house first. If I found one now and put a deposit down would they hold it for a few months for me since I can’t really move yet?

we’re just stuck in the predicament that we don’t have a house yet and she doesn’t have a job. but how can she get a job there, if she doesn’t live there yet?

Jobs for 16 year old in St. Louis?
