Does anyone know of good apps or websites that help high school students find part-time jobs? I'm looking for something that could help with jobs that don't require much experience, maybe something retail or service-oriented.
Sure, several apps and websites can be helpful when you're seeking a part-time job. Due to your interest in retail or service-oriented jobs, I'd recommend checking these out:
1. Snagajob: A job search tool with a focus on hourly work, which is great for students looking for part-time positions. Jobs range from retail positions to restaurant work.
2. Indeed: Indeed has a comprehensive collection of listings from a variety of job fields. Their search filters also allow you to narrow down by job type (full-time, part-time, internship, etc.), location, and more.
3. Glassdoor: While Glassdoor is known for providing intel on workplace culture, they also have a section for job listings, including part-time work.
4. LinkedIn: Although primarily used for professional networking, LinkedIn has a job search feature where you can filter by “entry-level” and “part-time” for your suited preference.
5. Appily (formerly known as Cappex): Specifically designed for students, it can be an excellent resource for part-time job opportunities.
Always keep your safety in mind while job hunting. Ensure the job listings are legitimate by conducting some research about the company and the contact person. Remember to customize your resume for each position to highlight the skills and experience that make you a good fit, and write a compelling cover letter that speaks to your interest and suitability for the role. Good luck in your search!
