Thank you comment icon Hi Alex, it was very smart of you to ask a question and get help from the professionals! Some things to ask yourself is what interests you and what skills do you already have. Some resources and advice have already been posted but I would add look at people you know or in contact with. Talk to them to see what they do and maybe shadow them. You can determine what interests you and what doesn't. Don't give up! If you need any additional support, please reach out. Sharyn Grose, Admin

David’s Answer

Hi Alex,

Let me start by saying there is great potential in you. Believe in yourself and you can accomplish anything.

Here are a couple of things that you may want to consider.

* What are your likes and dislikes as it relates to a type of job?
* What would you consider your ideal job? Write those things down and begin your research on what kinds of jobs might exist based on your idea.
* What are you passionate about? What excites you? Based on your responses there could be job opportunities that are a fit for you.
* Ask questions. Questions spark curiosity. Talk with people that are working a job to get a perspective on what a work day might be like.
* If there is a company that interests you. Call that company to see if you can schedule some time to talk with someone that would give you honest feedback on what it would be like to work at that company.

These items I have mentioned may offer you a starting point. Never give up!

I wish you all the success. I know you will be great!

Dan’s Answer

If you are looking for a part-time job while you are in school, you can ask your neighbors to cut their grass, shovel their snow, walk their dog, or anything else where they need some help. If you see them working on their house, you can walk up and ask them if they need any help. Telling people that you are looking to help may not get you a job at that time however they will likely remember you in the future when a need arises.

If you are thinking longer-term then study hard and do well in school. Your school classes are helping you acquire knowledge and skills that will be needed for both future jobs and university-level classes. High school and university classes will teach you the skills that you need to succeed. If you have ever played video games, you know that you don’t live very long in the beginning. However, if you keep trying, you acquire the skills required to win (or at least to avoid dying so often). Your High school and university classes are the same. Each class will provide more of the skills that are required to do well in the workplace.
