Asked by Gothy Rosebud
I want to work at Publix this summer to earn some extra cash. What can i do for it to be more likely thaat I will be hired? Im only 14, though i have good grades and volunteer alot. And i live in Florida.

Best Answer:
Take your birth certificate to City Hall and get a Work Permit. YOu can work that same day. Take the permit to Publix and fill out the one-page application. You will hear in 2 days if they have an opening. Retail and grocery stores are getting 100 applications per week from teenagers. Look at places where teens don't go: office buildings and industrial parks and golf courses.

Q: How old do you have to be to work at a Publix store? A: Federal and state laws regulate the employment of minors. These laws specifically regulate the hours that individuals under the age of 18 may work, the occupations in which they may be employed, and the hazardous equipment and/or materials from which they are restricted. Publix only accepts applications from job seekers who are at least 14 years old. However, not all of our stores hire minors due to the positions and shifts available at each location. Q: What positions can a minor apply for? A: If you are 14 or 15, you could be considered for Front Service Clerk (Bagger), Cashier or Floral Clerk. If you are 16 or 17, you could be considered for those positions, as well as for eight others: Bakery Clerk, Demonstrator, Dairy Clerk, Frozen Food Clerk, Housewares Clerk, Grocery Clerk, Produce Clerk or Health & Beauty Care Clerk. See our Job Description Chart for more details. Q: If I'm 14 or 15, what hours can I work? A: At 14 or 15, Publix policy - which is stricter than federal and state laws - allows you to work the following hours: During a week in which there is at least one school day, 13 hours per week, but no more than 2.5 hours a day Sunday through Friday and no more than 7 hours on Saturday. Work hours must not begin before 3 p.m. Monday through Friday and 7:30 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday. Work hours must not extend beyond 6:30 p.m. on any day. During a non-school week, 35 hours per week, but no more than 7 hours in one day. Work hours must not begin before 7:30 a.m. and rarely extend beyond 6:30 p.m. on any day.
