<p>Assuming nothing else has changed.
I’m 17 and work at McDonald’s, but they only give me like five hours a week. I’ve applied to other places but none of them ever call me back and I wondered if it’s just because I’m 17.</p>
<p>Some places require you to be 18 for certain positions; others require it for any position. You can call and ask before spending the time applying. It could also be more difficult because you are young and don’t have much work experience yet. How long you spend in a job matters, too. If you’ve only been at McDonald’s for 2 months and are putting that on your application, future employers may think you won’t stay with them long, either.</p>
<p>I’ve been there for a year and a half. :/</p>
