JOBS FOR 17 YEAR OLDS

Welcome to jobs for 17 year olds. The job environment is a tough one right now and anyone looking for a job might be discouraged. Seventeen year olds have the advantage over younger teens in that they qualify for many jobs that younger teenagers might not be allowed to do by law.

If you are looking for a summer job or any job throughout the year, you will probably need to work harder to get it than in years past. This is because of the very difficult economic environment and many businesses just aren’t hiring. These are the same businesses that might have had a job for you in years past.

Many of you might benefit from being creative and trying to find alternative ways to make money or things that you can do and charge people for them. In other words, it might be time to get out there and try to start your own mini business.

This can be done offline as well as online. If you have computer skills, you might be able to figure out ways to sell your skills and services to adults who need your help. You might be able to do things like design websites and sell them or just design websites for your neighborhood small business for a fee.

Offline, you can try to make money in many of the usual ways such as babysitting, lawn care, painting houses, fixing up houses, or charging for miscellaneous jobs that people might be willing to pay for. This way, even if you can’t get a real job with a company, you will be able to get some money coming in.

This is a time for you to explore all the possibilities and be creative. Good luck getting that job or whatever you decide to do.
