By Guest Blogger By Marci Kawar
Does your teenager need a job, but isn’t sure where to start? Does even the thought of looking for a job feel overwhelming and intimidating to them? Yes, it’s tough these days. With so many academic and social pressures, the idea of getting a job can be the tipping point for some. It’s a shame really. The tools that teens gain from working, are skills that are truly hard to find elsewhere. Where else can they learn so intimately about money management, conflict resolution and respect? A job is the perfect place! But there is always so much hesitancy. How can I find a job? What should I put on my resume? What do I say at the interview?
