There are many fun summer job options for young people in this country.
Of course there’s many opportunities at the local mall. Many teens and college students may feel uninterested in working in food service or in retail and think that these positions are boring or even demeaning. But, working at the mall can be a lot of fun for a young person. First of all, you can meet other young people you wouldn’t normally meet by being in the mix of things like that. You can also get discounts at the clothing store or food chain that you work at. One other thing to consider is that many retail stores and restaurants nowadays are part of a clothing chain or restaurant group. That means as an employee you will probably get discounts in a wide range of different venues.
With the Internet, your job search options are growing by the day. There are many online jobs like virtual assistance, typing and copy writing; but unfortunately, these jobs are hard to come by and everyone is competing for these work from home positions. But, the Internet does provide many great job search mechanisms. You can use these numerous job search engines to find jobs in your local area and all over the world. Without the Internet, you would only be able to find jobs using your local 1 or 3 newspapers. Here’s a very informative site.

Jobs in the entertainment field are also very exciting jobs for young people. Some of these jobs can include video game testers, performers at theme parks, cruise ship performers, internships at television and radio station, art summer camp instructor, promotional product modeling and night club host/hostess work and ticket check. These jobs are also very exciting and can even be somewhat glamorous. They look great on a resume for a student interested in entertainment, business or sales.
Vacation jobs are also fun and very exciting. Working at resorts, on cruise ships and at country clubs can be very nice for a young person. Often your room and board will be taken care of and you will be working in warm beautiful vacation destinations. The customers that you will be interacting with will be on vacation and having fun. That kind of feeling is catching and is nice to work around.
