Category: Marketing & Sales

Like the question states, I need a job and since no one is hiring I've turned to recycling but i need to bring in more money. I'm going to hold a yard sale this weekend but i need to know what else i could do. I'm saving up for college and i don't have much time left, my senior year begins on August 9, 2010. i need to have at least 5,000 dollars by the end of my senior year.

Thank you so much for your help.

Do you have any particular talents or skills you could take advantage of?

since no one is physically hiring, maybe you could turn to the internet for outsourced jobs?

Are you good with computers, sports, graphic designs? Maybe you could find some work online on those online job sites such as odesk.com where companies submit their needs (eg. graphic design, article writing) then qualified applicants can apply for them.

Other ideas...tutoring of some sort, language tutition, etc

I am sure there is something you know about which people might be interested in learning.

You should try craiglist. There if you look under gigs you can find some jobs there where people just need help moving or something. My brother did it and some of the jobs take up a lot of time and effort but at least you will get paid little by little. You should also ask around your neighborhood if anyone needs their lawn mowed or anything else like painting or fixing something. I'm sure you have some talent here and there so you can use that too to make some money. Good luck.
