Many teens enter the workforce by volunteering with community or church organizations to gain basic qualifications and experience. Volunteer work demonstrates that you are reliable and helps you develop important customer service skills. To land a seasonal job, create a resume that highlights relevant abilities and experience. Some jobs require a work permit, a valid driver’s license, or specialized training in CPR or First Aid, so be sure to review the requirements thoroughly before you apply. You also need good communication skills as well as the ability to follow oral and written instructions and pay attention to details.
