What is a fairly decent first job?

just do some gardening in your local community Rob :)

Best option would be a paper round, or getting a job cleaning dishes in a pub/hotel.

Not much you can do at 15.

I would recommend a paper round, not alot of places will take you until your 16 :(

My first like mini job was a paper round when i was 14 i think. Then when i turned 15 i decided i wanted a sat job and i got a job in my local MOTest + garage. But iv always been into cars.

Not true.


Also, many cafés hire people 14+, well they do around my area.

Try papar rounds, gardening for neighbours like mowing the lawn or whatever, washing windows, washing cars ....

I was a pot wash at 15

rubbish job mind

try to find a good job that'll suit you for the next 3 or 4 years. something long lasting will look nice on a future resume.

I was (and still am) packaging glassware since I was 15. I was lucky to find the job (pays $17.75 CAD / hr), but if you look around, you can find something like this.

btw, after 3 yrs there, I am up to $21.00 CAD / hr.
