As teenagers it’s often hard to find jobs that fit well into our schedules due to many jobs requiring experience and for staff to be over eighteen. Though the options are limited, down below I have listed a few places that are great for a teenagers to apply.
The best place that hires and offers teenagers a great experience is a grocery store. Many grocery stores in the area of Lake Elsinore hire students who are under eighteen. For example, Stator Bros and Walmart tend to hire younger teenagers to be cashiers or baggers. Albertsons and Cardenas are also great options.
A great recommendation from students who work there as of right now, is McDonald’s. Many people aren’t open to working in fast food because they feel embarrassed due to the uniform or being afraid of seeing classmates while working, but the pay at McDonald’s starts at $20-21 the hour which would be very helpful to families and teenagers saving up for college or their career.
Another place that is happy to hire teenagers is Five Below. Every time I go there is a new young staff member and they are hiring right now. The environment is great and working retail is a great first experience.
Lastly I want to recommend Chick-fil-a. It is very popular for teenagers to apply due to the nice environment and benefits. Many also apply because they are big fans of the food and want to receive discounts and free food. All of these options are great first jobs and there are also many more you can apply to!
