Although this all may sound pretty gloomy you do have options. The following 3 online jobs all hire immediately and can be done by anyone seeking work. How much time and effort you put in determines how much you get paid.
Here are the hottest 3 online part time jobs for 16 year olds at the moment.
This is where you sign up to a website and then get paid to click on other peoples ads or visit their websites. This is a pretty easy job however the pay is quite low, between $0.001 and $0.02 per action completed. But still, every cent counts if you are prepared to sit there and click away.
Is making money by signing up with a website that offers payment for receiving and reading emails. Payment is generally between $0.05 and $0.08 so again is a little low on the income side. If this is what you choose to do then it is most important that you set up a brand new email address like hotmail. These companies that pay you for reading emails are actually selling email lists so you are going to get quite a lot of spam.
This would have to be the best option by far when it comes to part time jobs for 16 year olds. Why? Because the pay is a whole lot better. If you manage to join the right survey companies you can easily earn $20+ per hour just for answering simple multi choice questions on things like what your favourite brand of drink is, things like that. Sounds crazy I know, but it's true. These survey companies also hold online product focus groups where they get teens to give them ideas on things like names, packaging, flavours etc of a new product.
You can get paid as much as $150 for a 2 hour online focus group. The only downside with looking for survey companies to work for is getting scammed, scams are very frequent when you are hunting out survey companies to work for. All to often teens end up working for a couple of bucks an hour just because they join the wrong company.
