Hi Brendan! Many employers can be quite selective, particularly when it comes to hiring students. The constraints of school may limit your availability, causing potential employers to hesitate. Perhaps it would be best to concentrate on your studies for now.

Hello Brendan,
It's crucial to demonstrate to potential employers that you're genuinely interested. After submitting your application, don't hesitate to follow up with a call or a visit to ensure they received it and to inquire about their decision-making timeline. Don't let any setbacks dampen your spirit. Remember, showing your enthusiasm can significantly boost your chances.
Ensure your resume effectively highlights your strengths. Your age, which you didn't mention, could be a factor, or perhaps employers are finding it challenging to accommodate a student's schedule. But don't let these potential hurdles deter you.
Seek assistance from your school counselor, who is a valuable resource at your disposal. If you have a specific area of interest, consider job shadowing. This could not only provide you with valuable experience but also potentially lead to a job offer.
Keep your chin up and stay positive!
