Teenagers Benefit from Work Experience
With summer quickly approaching, teens are beginning to think about getting their first job. Teens should talk to family and friends to find out who's hiring and then be prepared to create a resume. Even if they've never had a job before, they can list their achievements and activities. The two most important characteristics adolescents need to have to make good employees are being dependable and trainable.
Teenagers say that in addition to earning money for college or just spending money from part-time or summer jobs, they learn to set goals and be responsible. Teens can also learn how to deal with conflict and problem solving.
Employers say that teens should come dressed nicely and be clean and well groomed when they apply for job. They say teens should also remember that when they're in public, they're always being observed, especially by potential employers.
