Well, I am 14 years old (turning 15 in June) and you have to be at least 15 years old to get a job here in New Jersey (maybe only for Bergen County), but I don't know. So I'm planning to apply for a job in June/July to work part time. Problem is, will they accept your application? How would they know your a good worker who deserves a job position if it's your 1st time trying to get a job? I am going to apply for a job at a mall or something, or a pizza store.

You can apply to more than one place. I live in NJ too (and coincidently work at a pizza place), and when I turned 15 I applied to about 3 different places. If more than one place is willing to hire you, pick one and tell the others that you had a better offer. The employer won't know much about you until you work for them. If you want an easy job that is a no brainier, be a host/hostess. It's really easy; it was my first job.

Plus, a lot of restaurants are usually willing to hire new people come summer time because if they have high school seniors working as waiters/waitresses for them, they are going to need to train new people soon to replace the seniors going off the college (if they go off to a far college).
