The job market is terrible at the moment, though slowly getting better, but very slowly. Adults with degrees and job experience can't get jobs, so why should you? :P Especially when it's just for a computer and 360, christmas is coming up, just ask for them then.

I know exactly how you feel. I made 15 copies of my resume, went to apply at a couple places... and each time Sorry you must be 16. In canada, most places hire at 16. I really want a new laptop too :(

Do good in school so you can get a lot of money from scholarships and grants when you go to college. Then get a 360 and a computer.

i quit my amazing job because of school, im 17 and i still got 3kCAD in the bank, imo school is more important than a stupid console game, which wont get you very far in life...

Son, get a degree in medical school, people will be begining you to come to their hospitals, with a 500k salary at like 28 - 29 years old..

But no life..

Yea where I live its really hard (I'm 17) I got 1 interview at Best Buy for geek squad and I was the only one there that knew a thing about computers and they didn't hire me. I think I've applied at 16 places now? I hate the people that apply at one place and POW they get the job.

I got 3 A's and 4 or 5 B's, my school thing is tight im not worried about that, the problem with asking for it for christmas is that i got a car for mu birthday and i know im burning a whole in my moms pocket with gas and these random repairs. I.E: Had to get a new battery and Alternator for 250 Bucks. Now need new tires for winter months which is like another 300-500.

lol but its the truth, at 19 you get into university, and 10 years later your a doc. 19+10 roughly 29 - 30 and at the moment docs are really needed...

If thats not what you meant, please clarify your statement...

Sign on with a staffing service.

It's something to fall back on while putting out applications.

Go to an agency. Lie about your level of experience. Most of the time, they won't even need a resume. If they ask you if you've had experience in some easy job, tell them "yes" but you had a slightly different system. Doesn't matter, they'll still train you.

I'm just glad I'm able to keep my hotel auditing job for more than 2 years now as a part-time since senior year in HS. I'm in college right now and hopefully, the medical field job market is as good as they say - recession proof.

You must be doing something wrong because easy menial jobs around the age of 15-18 are always easy to get.
I don't think you should type out resumes and spread them all over or something. Just go to the store and ask if they need people, a direct approach is the best for these kind of jobs.

At the moment I don't work, but all my friends have really no problems at all getting work.

Had the same problem last summer. Couldn`t really find anything for my age (I`m 16, gonna be 17 in January). At the beginning of the school year, I`ve found a job at a super market. I`m just putting milk stuff on the shells lol. I get paid a minimum, but hey, at least something. Every weekend, and sometimes on holidays, and I get enough money to party, buy clothes and go out with friends.. :) Just ask some friends that already have a job, maybe they`ll find you one too.
