At HS level, would suggest learning how to safely network outside one's peer group via local events. Provides exposure to 'what might be intersting'/'new stuff' while allowing for references/feedback from others beyond job opporunities. Work with parents / mentors about relevant available local events. ideas: ** check out job fair. Do some prep-work via set of questions about what expected interest/looking for. Revise it everytime goto job fair based on job fair/non-job fair feedback/experience. Business do this for jobs, offerings, canidates should too! Be clear about intentions (aka experience in how to find what's available for HS looking for remote IT opportunities) ** ?? HS level sponsored coding events (or talking to someone at a HS about starting one)
