Summer jobs

    As a high schooler, you may feel as though you lack the necessary experience to land: a prime gig. However, there are plenty of jobs you are qualified for that pay rather well. !

Both part-time and full-time jobs are available for people of all abilities.

    While it may be difficult to know exactly what career you want to pursue when you graduate from high school, summer jobs can offer the perfect opportunity to test a job you think you may like. If you do a great job and are still interested in the line of work once summer is over, you will have some much-needed experience. This can lead to more work next summer, and perhaps a part-time job while you attend school. The pay may not be great (internships are often unpaid) but the experience can be priceless. To find an internship you : would like, you could ask a counselor at school for assistance, call up businesses you find ! interesting and ask whether they are hiring interns, and check out websites, which focus solely on interning.

    If you want to earn some money, babysitter's job is a great choice. Friends of mine with two young children pay their babysitter $15 per hour - that's not a bad pay-rate for a part-time summer job. Ask any parent, and you will find that good babysitters are hard to come by. Do a great job taking care of the kids, and you could find yourself gainfully employed, earning great income and setting your own hours all summer long. Get your certification to further boost your credentials as a prospective nanny. While networking in your neighborhood will probably provide you with plenty of leads, you can also check out some websites to find more.

    If you enjoy being outdoors, going camping and hiking, and playing sports, then working as a camp counselor is the perfect job for you — that is, if you don't mind watching over groups of kids away from their parents for weeks at a time! There are summer camps all over the country designated for almost any activity you could imagine, so you can likely find a perfect match for your interests. Camp counselor salaries vary greatly, especially for employees only working during summer months. However, year-round counselors earn an annual average salary around $23,000, so you could be making some serious money in the few short months of summer.

    Summer is usually spent on vacation, but many students use their summer break to continue or enhance their education. If you are strong in any particular subjects, you could put up notices on bulletin boards around town to offer your services as a tutor. Tutors just starting out can charge around $15 per hour, while those holding advanced degrees and years of experience can charge up to $50 per hour. Along with making good money, you will gain great experience to add to your college applications, and you can set your own hours, leaving, you plenty of time to hang out with friends.

    Summer is a vacation season, so many people hit the road to their favorite destination during those months. But what about their pets? That's where you come in, taking care of the animals that have to stay home while the family goes on vacation. Pet-sitting is a very important job, and you would be entrusted to watch over the animals as if they were your own. Experience with dogs, cats, and other domestic animals is vital, along with any references  you can get from family and friends.

    So why not get some experience and earn money while you have a summer vacation? Who knows, maybe one of your summers will define your future career.
