Answer 1

it just depends if you are showing.and if you are not then theres a shot!

Answer 2

It depends on the area you live in and the company hiring you. Most places in the United States can legally hire someone age 15 1/2, but companies often won't hire someone below the age of 16. The only positions you can't legally work as are positions that handle controlled substances, like alcohol, cigarettes, and medicine.

The most important thing to bring to an interview is yourself, because as an employee you are an investment and you need to sell yourself. Dress appropriately and conservatively, do not show cleavage or wear bad-fitting or casual clothes, have good posture, manners, and most importantly, have confidence in yourself.
