J1/F1 employment

I will spend the next year in California, enrolled in a public high school on a J-1 visa, I'm an 18 year old high school graduate from Switzerland by the way.

I plan to work for one year right after graduation, raise money for college and eventually go to college. I figure it would be nice to work in the US despite me being a non-immigrant (instead of going back to Switzerland and working there for better wages). Is it even possible to look for a full-time job after graduating and what would I have to do concerning the visa (renewal etc)?

Thanks for your consideration!
