A: FROM MENTOR NICOLE O'HARA IN NJ
Finding a job this summer has been harder for myself and friends than last summer. I suggest going to all the local temp agencies that you can. Your age, ability to learn quickly and computer skills should get you something. Make up a resume (if you don't already have one). I also suggest that you know all the microsoft hoopla - word, works, powerpoint, excel (access sometimes comes up). If you're not familiar try your school's computer lab or the library. I'm sure you can find a person and/or book that will tutor you in those. It just makes you all that much more marketable. Go, girl and good luck:)
