New Door Ventures on CBS 5/KCBS: Job Market Tough On Bay Area Teens

Bay Area teenagers are among those feeling the impact of a tightening market for jobs as competition heats up for even part-time work.

"Despite the fact that you don't necessarily have a resume or much experience, following up really matters.

Employers across the country cut staffing levels by 63,000 positions last month.
