How many months in advance should I email a company if I want to job shadow with them in the summer?
I'm an 11th grade student in B.C, and I want to get into job shadowing this summer. I have a list of companies/firms I'd like to job shadow for, but I'm not sure when to email them. I don't know if emailing really early (Jan or Feb) is ideal, or if they prefer it closer to the time I'd be joining them. What is the sweet spot for emailing?
How beneficial is job shadowing?
I'm an 11th grade student in B.C Canada and many of my older friends in school talk about job shadowing in the field they would like to go into. Essentially my question is would job shadowing be beneficial for a high school student or is it more intended for post-secondary students? If it's ok for high school students, is it any different from applying to a job or do I have to email places if they allow job shadowing?

Who in a Fire Station should I contact about job-shadowing opportunities?
Hello, I'm 14 years old and will be job shadowing soon. I want to do it with EMS, specifically an medical first responder. I figured since I will likely not be able to do it with EMTs that use ambulances as I don't know how old I would have to be for a ride along, I would go for firefighters instead. I do not know how high up the list I should contact with something like this, but I was thinking administrative assistant. Any guidance before I try them? #firefighter #ems #advice #jobshadowing
