Are there any jobs for teens 15 or older?
Asked by Monkeylord
I live in Gilbert, Arizona (85233) and I am 15 and I am looking for any type of job that has a good pay. I have wanted a job for a while and am unable to find one. If you can find some want ads or job opportunities for my zip code or city that would be great. Thank-you.

There are jobs you can get at age 15 but the opportunities are much more limited (legally) than they will be once you're 16. One possibility is working at a theme park; there is one in my city (not in your area) that hires 15-year-olds for limited hours. Also there's babysitting, dog-walking, yard work and doing odd jobs, such as for disabled persons or elderly persons. School will be starting soon...there may be a family that lives near you that has kids that need supervision when they come home from school until their parents get home from work.
One place to look that you may not have checked yet is craigslist.com. I would just caution you in general if an ad looks too good to be true, it probably is. But craigslist has all kinds of opportunities and it's free for both the company to post the job and the job-seeker. Good luck!
