I'm currently a high school student in Greenville, NC, and I'm on the hunt for a part-time job. What are some good places to apply that understand a student's schedule and needs?
Given your need for flexibility because of your academic commitments, you might want to consider looking for jobs in the service industry, retail, or gig economy. They might accommodate part-time students best.
Local coffee shops, grocery stores, and fast food chains are typically willing to hire high school students and could offer quite flexible hours. You can drop by in person and ask if they have any vacancies available.
If you're interested in starting a career or getting experience in a specific field, try to find opportunities that align with those interests too. This not only will provide you with income, but it will also give you valuable experience and exposure to your potential career path.
Consider tutoring if you excel in a specific subject. You could connect with local middle schools or use tutoring platforms.
Check local businesses and shops in downtown Greenville as they often hire part-time employees.
Remember it's crucial to discuss your scheduling needs during the interview, so potential employers know your school commitments upfront. Good luck with your job hunt!
