yeah there is a CVS right next to my high school, i was thinking about applying there, but i figured, since there is 3600 kids at my school they would constantly be getting apps.

Eh.. if you don't apply there's a 100% chance you will NOT get the job. Get it?

go grab an app, and when you return to turn it in, make sure its typed, dress SUPER nice (nicer than whats required for the actual job) and ask to make sure to talk to a manager. Then express your LOVE for CVS and that you're dedicated and willing to do ANYTHING.. give a firm handshake and speak like youre smart.. and you're set!!

OH yah, gotta get the interview somehow! your only "resume" is the fact that you're better than the other 15 year olds. Be charming, funny, witty, well spoke, and dress super nice. Then the manager will think "kid wants this, and is more mature than the other jackoffs.." and hopefully will give you the interview!

If you want to work for yourself their are alot of things you can do. I'm not sure about your area but as someone said earlier lawn care. It has relativly low startup costs and the money per hour is great. If that's not an option then maybe pressure washing or car detailing if your'e patient. Or if you want to be able to do something out of your house then maybe look into making stuff like wooden pens or something that interests you.

I went to a contractor and asked to be hired for cheap, so I could learn how to build and do demo work. And I'm still doing it 5 years later! But for allot more! haha So it's all about determination on what you want to do...and allot to do with it is who you know as well!

I worked burger joints, paper routes and KFC when I was fifteen. If you develop a good work ethic, people will hire you.

You could always hang out downtown where the > 30 yr old women are and wear a t-shirt that says "I break for rich cougars" and see what happens.

You have to be at least 16 years old. My friend's dad is in charge of all the CVS in Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico (maybe) and I think parts of cali and other various places. He told me anytime I needed a job to just let him know, but I needed to be at least 16 years old. I am now that age, but I got a job elsewhere. Just hang in there. His son had to wait a month too before he could get start working.

I looked around a lot when I was your age, looking for jobs and whatnot, and again, your best bet is grocery stores. Hit them up first before doing fast food. Just my $.02
