Step 1

• Decide what kind of work you are willing to do.
  For example, if you do not have tolerance for
  crying babies, you would probably dislike working
  in a nursery.
• Determine what type of work schedule you would be
  able to follow. For example, a person who is
  active in a club or sport may prefer a job that
  has hours on the weekend or later in the evening,
  so that work and school do not interfere with one
  another. Consider transportation as well.
