I did a job search but there are no jobs listed for
my area. What's up?
We appreciate your question and share your concerns. Everyday
we contact hundreds of employers and ask them to advertise
their jobs for teens on Teens4Hire. We have teen volunteers
in every major U.S. city contacting employers to post jobs
that teens could fill.
Most employers do not advertise their jobs but may have jobs
available. Read more about the Hidden
Job Market for Teens.
As time goes on, we're confident that we can get more employers
to advertise because there are a lot of you looking for a
job. In the meantime, sign up for our NOTIFY service and we'll
let you know when we have jobs in your area.
I registered and created a profile but now I can't
log back in. What do I do?
Check that you entered the EXACT email address and password
you put on your registration profile. If you have forgotten
your password, you can request that it be sent to the email
address you entered on your registration profile. If you provided
an invalid email address, then we have no way of contacting
you. The system periodically checks for invalid email addresses.
If found, the profiles are automatically deleted. This is
considered an abuse of the site.
I made an account and a profile and received a confirmation
email, but when I try to login, it tells me that I must be
logged in to view the requested page.
You can't search jobs without logging in. You have to LOGIN
on the home page at www.teens4hire.org with the EXACT email
address and password you put on your profile. The system will
welcome you back and then you can search for jobs. If there
are no jobs in your area today, sign up for our NOTIFY feature
and we'll send you an email when jobs are posted in your area.
How do I update my profile?
When you login there is a button on the left that let's you
edit your profile. Don't forget to SAVE it after you update
or edit it.
I forgot my password. What do I do?
Click
here to retrieve your email address, and we will send
it to the email address on your registration profile.
I made an account registration profile and received
a confirmation email, but when I try to login, it tells me
that my account does not exist. What's up?

every six months. Member accounts that have been inactive
for more than 6 months will be automatically deleted. At this
point, you will need to register again.
