What job can I get as a 13-year-old?

please help.

Thank you comment icon Hi Jerrah, Make sure you check the child labor laws in your state. I believe you have to be 14 to work in Oklahoma (with few exceptions, like working with a parent or newspaper delivery), and if you are 15 or 16 you need a work permit for formal employment. There are also limits on the number of hours you can work. Good luck! KP Karin P.

It's all about what sparks your interest! You have the option to mow lawns, babysit, or explore other common jobs. However, if you're ready to take your job hunt to the next level, consider platforms like Indeed.com and LinkedIn Jobs. Set up your profile and be clear about your job preferences. Remember, numerous organizations are out there offering internships. So, go ahead and seize the opportunity!

Great you are asking this question -- it shows you're ambitious! There are a number of possibilities such as babysitting, yard projects, or running errands. Check with your family, relatives and neighbors to see what you can do for them. You might create a simple flyer listing all the things you're willing to do such as "Watch your child for a few hours, pick up something for you at the store, rake leaves, plant flowers, clean your windows, etc. Include ways to contact you by phone or email.

Would be great if you could mention some volunteer experience that you have had. If not, try volunteering, perhaps with your family or friends. Also include any other experience such as being a girl scout, member of a church choir or sports club.

With every good wish!
