Summer Jobs for Staten Island Teens
2016 UPDATED SUMMER JOBS LIST HERE
2016 UPDATED SUMMER JOBS LIST HERE
Finding a summer job in NYC isn’t easy like it used to be. For the past few years, NYC has a job program for teens!
NYC has a summer job program for teens from July 5th until August . I know many teens who have enjoyed working in this program, especially in the schools. Teens have until May 18th to fill out the form and then the lottery for jobs will begin. You need to be 14 years old by July 5, 2012 (and not older than 24) to apply for this program. This program is great because most places won’t hire students who are 14 or 15 year olds in New York.
What type of job will I be given through SYEP? You can find out what’s in your area by clicking here and entering your zip code. There are clerical, hospital, camp, cultural and custodial aides in government and non profit agencies. Many the teens in Brooklyn worked as camp helpers and played with the kids in the school yards. NYC SYEP pays the teens every two weeks. Some of the places allow the teens to work part time as well if they are going to summer school.
What if I can’t find a job through the Summer Youth Employment Program?
Party City has three positions available in Staten Island
Macys in the Mall has positions
If you like kids and phtography, there is associate positions available at the Picture People
Stock Clerk at Toys R Us or Salesperson at Toys r Us

Mother’s Helper and other babysitting jobs in Staten Island
If you are 16 years old – there are jobs for Camp Counselors here.
If you are 17 years old, you can find a fun job working at Adventurer’s Family Entertainment Center – it’s a small amusement park in Brooklyn!
If you are 17 years old, Assistant Junior Counselors are needed here. If you are 18 year’s old, you can be a day camp counselor here in Brooklyn.
*If you are a daring and smart teen, you probably could find a cool job as a camp counselor at one of the Brooklyn summer camps for kids places listed here – they haven’t advertised a lot of these positions yet so they don’t even know they need you. Shoot them an e-mail where you introduce yourself and let them know why they need an ambitious teen like you!
You can try finding a job through Snag a Job Brooklyn board or Snag A Job’s teen job board in NYC.
