Job Ideas?
    #5482725 - 04/05/06 12:31 PM (17 years, 9 months ago)

Hey im 19 and a college student. I need to get a job this summer. I probaly start filling out applications when im home for Easter.

I am looking for a job that will give me a set schedule and pay around $9 an hour or more. Looking to work anywhere from 20-40 hours a week. In addition i dont want to work after 8 at night. I would also like to go to the shore a good amount so i would prefer to not work weekends either.

I was thinking of maybe getting a job at a bank because they have awesome hours. But what other kind of jobs would fit my criteria? I am open to just about any kind of work except being a waiter.

Also I havent smoked pot in like 2 weeks and its not a problem to pass a drug test or anything along those lines.

If you want to find something quick and easy, and you live in a decent sized city, I'd advise you to hit up a temp agency. They've never done me wrong, and you can usually get alot of offers, even if your unskilled.

And dont be fooled by the "Temp" part. Most temp jobs, in my experience, are either actually permanent, or are temp-to-hire.

I was too lazy to type the same thing...totally. Temp agencies will hook you up with sweet well-paying work if you're not in the mood to pursue a career.

I second the temp agency.

Also, warehouse work meets your requirements, and is always in supply.

Doubt many banks will hire 19 year olds with no experience just looking for a summer job to be honest, although you never know.

^listen to this dude and get yourself down to a temp agency. They should be able to sort you right out.

If you don't mind manual labour, I found construction to be a GREAT job for the summer time. Just get a job as a general labourer with a residential construction company.

You'll have to do all the "bitch work", but it's not a bad job. Pay is usually pretty good. You get to work outside a lot, get exercise while you work, and you'll learn a TONN of good skills to have should you ever need to build/repair something on your own!

They usually have all kinds of work. They wont place me in an office, 'cause I look dirty, even though I can type like, 75wpm. But yeah, you can get whatever kind of work your looking for usually.

What are you studying in college? You could kill two birds with one stone and gain some work-related experience.

Sounds like you have your options open. In addition to the temp. thing, open the local paper and check the classifieds (or online like a craigslist).

For banks even for Summer positions for students you usually have to apply by December or January and there between 3-5 stages in the interview process.
