<p>And how did you go about finding one? (for example, newspaper ads, Indeed.com, networking)</p>
<p>Also, what kind of job did you get?</p>
<p>Networking. It always works better than other methods. I got a job at a state park (last year) and am going back this year. I also just helped a friend get a job there (and hopefully my brother will be interviewing there, too). So…networking. My job during the school year I got when I drove by the store and it had a “now hiring” sign outside. It was a very easy job to get. (I also almost got a job a the restaurant my brother works at - it just wasn’t full time there). </p>
<p>There was one other job offer I got from a library. I think that the key to getting a job if you can’t network is actually going into the workplace and turning in a paper application and resume. The online process is too distant to give potential employers a good idea about you. (i.e. if they see you they can find out if you look decent, you know, no excessive cleavage, no gang symbols tattooed on your face, etc.).</p>
<p>Oh, I also know people who have gotten the following types of jobs:</p>
<p>painting at a local university
life guarding at a local water park, university, state park, and neighborhood pools
library
fast food chains (i.e. wendy’s, steak 'n shake, etc.)
petsmart
dick’s sporting goods
labor at a state park
corn detassling at farms
local zoos
daycare’s and a hospital nursery/daycare
other seasonal jobs</p>
