    Answer:

The employment for young men and women typically begins to increase in April, peaks in July, and drops back by September every year. It is best to start your summer job search in early spring to find your temporary work in the summer.

All types of industries, for both private and government work, offer summer job opportunities. Some seasonable businesses, like arcades, resorts, hotels, and building contractors, needs additional help in anticipation of increased summertime business. While others,  such as concession stands, house painters, and parks and recreational agencies, do the bulk of their work (and hiring) in the summer.

There are also many other summer job opportunities, like providing services such as planning children's birthday parties, tutoring, providing computer training, or shopping and errand-running. There are also traditional summer service work for yard caring, house and pet sitting, and child care.

Follow the general tips of "How to get a job?" and "Can anyone give me some guide to find the right job?". Begin to plan your summer job early. Prepare and write your resume focusing on your work experience, skills, and strengths. Let family members, relatives, friends, neighbors, parents of friends, and previous employers know you are looking for summer work. Use the Internet and local library to search for summer employment. 

Keep in mind your long-term career goals while planning your summer work. You may very well find entry-level, temporary work that will serve as useful experience when are are seeking your full-time job in the future. Work as hard as you can and give your employer 100% satisfactory. Your summer experience can help you establish references and contacts for future career and help you start on the road from student to professional.
