It may be tempting to take the summer off and relax, but looking for a job will give you helpful life skills. Finding a job may be hard, but the search will be worth it. Jobs are out there.
Even if you don't land the job you want, you'll still gain these skills from the process:
If you're thinking about a summer job, apply. You have nothing to lose and a lot to gain. And if you don't get a job, volunteer. Volunteering is a great way to gain experience. It looks favorable on résumés for college applications or future jobs.
If you need help writing a résumé to apply for a job, search online. A number of websites offer free tips.
