The job app built specifically for teens and college students. Find jobs near you, apply in 60 seconds, and get hired fast.
THE PROBLEM
Every major job platform was built for adults with careers. A 16-year-old trying to get their first job at Starbucks shouldn't need a polished resume, three references, and five years of experience.
Indeed, ZipRecruiter, and LinkedIn were built for professionals. They require resumes, work history, and experience that first-time job seekers simply don't have.
Teen labor laws vary by state. Work permits, hour limits, age restrictions — no existing platform handles any of this automatically. Employers get it wrong. Teens get burned.
Getting your first job is terrifying. What do you wear? What do you say? How do you negotiate? Nobody teaches this. Until now.
MARKET OPPORTUNITY
Teens earned over $100 billion in wages in the US last year. The platform connecting them to those jobs doesn't exist yet.

THE FOUNDER
"I built TeenWurk because I was the teenager who couldn't find a good job platform. Every app I tried was built for adults with careers — not for a 16-year-old looking for their first opportunity.
So I built what I wished existed. 174,000 lines of code. 168 screens. Every feature designed with a teen's perspective. TeenWurk is the platform I needed — and now it's for every teen in America."
