  • austinlavin, on 05/25/2008, -0/+1Well done article about the state of summer employment for teens, although I wish they would hae mentioned myfirstpaycheck.com. I believe that that plenty of teens want to work but face increasing difficulties landing jobs. The article states two big difficulties that teens face are connections/lack of connections and access to transportation, but I think they should have also added lack of understanding how to apply for a job. Many teens don't know how to begin applying for a job - let alone compete in a tightening labor market - and that's why we created myfirstpaycheck.com to give teens the tools they make the job search process a little easier.
