Below are links to some of the best sources for paid and unpaid internships, apprenticeships, part-time and full-time jobs. I suggest you build an impressive resume and profile that you can edit and tailor to specific offerings. You can customize your search to better suit your needs and set up notifications as well. Remember, these are great resources but never a replacement for networking with family, friends, teachers, and the community.

Use filters and keywords like “high school,” “teen internship,” or “student intern” to narrow results.
Check age/grade requirements on each listing — many larger internship platforms don’t automatically filter for high school eligibility.

Look for reviews on the Company from other interns or employees to ensure you have a positive experience
