I'm starting to look for part-time jobs while finishing high school. Are there specific job search engines or sites that cater specifically to high school students and entry-level positions?
Sure, there are several job search engines that you may find helpful in your search for part-time jobs.
Indeed, for instance, is one of the most popular job search engines and has a large database of jobs, including entry-level and part-time jobs suitable for high school students. They even have filters to help you narrow down your search to roles that specifically require little to no experience.
Snagajob is another good resource for part-time job searching. Many of their postings are for entry-level or hourly jobs, like retail and fast food, which are roles often filled by high school students.
You might also want to check out SimplyHired. Similar to Indeed, Simply Hired aggregates job postings from multiple sites and includes a good number of entry-level and part-time roles.
Lastly, LinkedIn has an internships and entry-level jobs section, which can be a great resource for high school students looking for part-time work or preparing for their first job out of high school.
Remember that you often have to filter or search specifically for part-time or entry-level roles on these sites to find the jobs best suited for high school students. Plus, don't hesitate to market any extracurricular activities or volunteer work you've done on your applications and during interviews, as these experiences can demonstrate your skills and work ethic.
