Hello, i'm going to be 18 this summer and I wonder if it's possible for someone like me to find a job.
I'm still in highschool and don't have any experience as you might imagine.

I speak portuguese, french and english. But that's pretty much all I have to offer... I don't really know how things work here but what do you think?

Thanks ^^

By the way I've lived in geneva for 3 years

Hi and welcome to the forum. If you're eilligible to work in Switzerland, then I suggest you get in touch with the municipial department (the people who collect garbage, sweep streets, cut grass etc. for the city). In the German part, it is not uncommon for high school kids to take up such jobs during summer holidays. Also, distributing newspapers and magazines could also be an option but I don't think that it pays that well. Either way, I wish you all the best and find it very positive, that you are being proactive!

Hmm i see thanks for the reply, I think i'll do just that, do you think that there are more different jobs? I just wanted to know the possibilities.

Hi Kio have you thought about babysitting during the summer holidays? Or working in a summer camp for kids?

Those are also good ideas, where do you think I should search?

Could your school perhaps connect you with local camps that could use the help of a person your age? I would think that your tri-lingual skills could be very helpful at a children's camp that is marketed for both local and expat kids.

Another suggestion for you would be to take time to look at bulletin boards at local stores, groceries, or commune administrative offices. You can see how other people are advertising their services, what they do, and whether anyone is advertising for a position for which you might be qualified.

Good luck to you!

Thanks!
I'm always open to more suggestions, if someone has more ideas
