Answer 1

U can work. But there are limitations. You can't serve alcohol, not that you need to serve alcohol working as a hostess, but just so you know.

Also, you need a permit from your school.

You can only work a specific amount of numbers, depending on what state/ county you are in.

You can't work past a specific hour.

You can work full time during summer break.

But yes, you can work.

If there are any openings to work as a waitress/ server where you wouldn't have to serve alcohol, why don;t you apply to be a server?

You can't work many hours but you can make more than a hostess does because you will be making plenty of tips.

Just something to think about...

And you just need to go to Olive Garden, ask them if they are hiring for a hostess position, and ask for an application, better if you have a resume.  Even if they are not hiring at the moment, just drop of a resume, you never know.

If you have never worked before, make a resume with your education info, include places you have volunteered, and include your strengths. Don't go in and be like hey I'm 15, can I be a hostess. Don't do that. Just go in and ask for an application, if they call u for an interview, go there with a work permit from your school.

Answer 2

You don't need a work permit in FL.  Just call them and ask them what the minimum age is to work for them. Try to be professional and courteous. Good Luck. There aren't many places around here that hire at 15. I know chic-fil-a does.  

Answer 3

No, you need to be 16 to work as a hostess.

Answer 4

NO!!!

Answer 5

I think you just need a workers permit from school or at least thats  what I did back when i was 15.
