Jobs for Young People in the UK

Some people leave school at sixteen and immediately start to work. But if they don’t have a job to go to, the first thing to enter the job market is to go to a local Job Centre or careers office, where they can get free advice and guidance.

Other people start to work after they have completed their higher education and get diploma at 22 or 23. However, many young people can work while they are still at school or university. One of the most traditional part-time jobs for schoolchildren is delivering newspapers to people’s doors.

Many young people also work in cafés, restaurants, department stores and bars or do baby-sitting. Students can find special summer jobs such as fruit picking to help them earn money during the summer holidays.

Those who leave school with only basic education can have training opportunities, however, it is often very difficult for them to find jobs.
