Answer 1

actually its illegal to hire anyone under 14. in some places the minimum age to work may be higher. you'd have to wait and see, and then apply at these places and ask them directly if they're looking for anyone. you have to learn how to job hunt, before you can get one. you also have to get a little older.

Answer 2

13 -- 14 – 15 years old: Depending on local laws, you can work outside school hours in non-hazardous jobs (restaurant and retail gigs are fine). But your hours are limited, especially on school days, when you can work a maximum of three hours a day. This increases to a maximum of eight hours a day on Saturday and Sunday. The maximum you can work in a week while school is in session is 18 hours, and this increases to 40 hours during the summer.

You should also know that while the U.S. government doesn’t require you to have any special paperwork or documents saying it’s OK for you to work, your state may. Some states require these documents (also known as “working papers”) for teens under 18. Ask your school guidance office or career center if they have the forms to fill out – and to provide you with assistance. You can also check with your state’s labor department by typing in the following Web address into your Internet browser:

Answer 3

The employment laws for your age group I think vary by state, you may have to consult your local labor board to find out if people even can hire you.  I think in NV, that a 13 year old has extreme limitations & needs parental consent.

Answer 4

The legal age to hire a minor for any job is 14.

However, you can volunteer in a retirement home at 13.
