Adelaide Jobs For 14 Year Olds..?

Question

Hey i'm 14 and live in Adelaide, Australia.

I really want a job.. less hassle.. don't have to ask the folks for money everytime I want something or go out..

Do you know any places I could work? And also the pay? If you know?

That would help a lot.

Thanks.

Answer 1

First of all look at http://www.thesource.gov.au/find/career/...  

A great site based for young people. 12 - 25 yrs old.

Generally it is 14 1/2 to work, but you can work earlier as long as your have your parent’s permission.

Coles, Woolworths, IGA, K-mart, Target, Big W, The Warehouse.

Any fast food places, McDonalds, KFC etc - they all take on casual staff. - Just walk in and ask !

Smaller takeaway shops, like Pizza, Pasta etc... they are always taking on delivery persons and need kitchen hands....

Pay starts at around $7 an hour for minimum wage

- Most of the places above you apply online on their websites, look for a link 'careers' or 'employment'.  A bit lengthy I know.... but you fill in what area you want to work etc, and they will email you jobs coming up, you can pick and choose, if you are then accepted they will call you in for an interview.

Good Luck with it all.
