Hmmm. Well there are a few amusement parks hiring for the summer, Six flags is right over the Suffield, CT line in MA and there is Lake Compounce in Bristol, CT they usually hir through October i believe.
But without job experience really the only other thing i could think of is maybe a fast food resturaunt or something along those lines. Maybe some clothing stores hire for the summer as well like Filenes etc, but i'm not sure if they'd hire you or not. You'd have to apply to find out.

Look into restaurants, hotels and retail. I did a quick search on Indeed and, for being in a recession, there are a ton of openings. In Fairfield County, there are the Trumbull, Danbury and Stamford malls. Milford mall is just over the border in New Haven County. |

I'm not so sure if I can work legally in those places, they all require you to have a SSN right? I live very close to Trumbull shopping mall, guess I have to look up in some places during the Easter Break..

Nyc
Might try looking in NYC too
Stratford and Bridgeport both have New Haven line train connections into PENN STATION
so you could find a job in NYC Maybe or an internship?
Can you apply for a green card?
