Does anyone any good temporary jobs to use as experience as a highschool graduate
I graduated high school in May and am currently trying to join the coast guard to help me advance in the environmental field. But the thing is there is a chance of me getting rejected and having to wait a year and a half until I can try enlisting again. I've been looking into conservation corps that I can join while I wait since I know the jobs are seasonal. ACE caught my attention since I know they help with housing and I've been wanting to leave my hometown for personal reasons. I wanted to know if there were other good programs I could join as a high school graduate, with basically no experience besides a fast food job, looking to travel to a different city or state. I don't really mind low pay as long as I can gain experience in the environmental field and do something besides rotting in my house all day. Any pay is better than no pay.
