You want a job that makes good use of your abilities. For example, if you re interested in forestry, consider working at a state park, the city park system, or a lumber yard. Or if you are interested in health and fitness, become a certified aerobics instructor, work as an umpire for Little League games, in a sports store or as a youth activity assistant. Once you have mastered the skills necessary for your position, always look for ways to expand. Look for jobs offering educational incentives and training.
Some employers offer study incentives, tutoring opportunities or pay increases for improving grades.
Since many chains and stores are owned individually, make sure you ask about these incentives one fast food store may offer incentives, while another fast food store just a few blocks away may not. Some employers also offer scholarships and system transfers. A system transfer allows college-bound employees to transfer to a workplace in their college town, while keeping seniority and pay. Ask about educational incentives when an employer offers you a job. Explore cooperative education programs.
