Can I get a job?

Is it possible to get a job at 17? If so how do you guys apply?
You can get a job at 17. Some companies or businesses are hesitant to employ young people but there are some that will. Either apply online, big companies have an online system but if you’re looking for something smaller scale and local, try handing in a cv to the staff there

should do, as long as you’ve got your grades + cv and then national insurance number if you get accepted

Yes. You just look online for vacancies and apply. Some, such as Tesco, require you to be 18+, so just read over the description for the ones you’re applying to.

Primark is a good place to start. They have good hours and pay for a 17 year old :smile:
