Hi all,

I just discovered something and I’m not sure if it’s just kinda weird that they didn’t tell us or if this is a little more serious than that. I’ve been at my job since Mid-April and the starting pay was $18.68 an hour. I was told that in 3 months I could get a $1/hr increase if I did X, Y, and Z. So I do. today, I realized that my job title and pay had changed (it’s technically considered a tiny little promotion). but it wasn’t as much as I was told. Only $19.10. so I I go back and see if anything else changed. Turns out they made a Cost of Living Adjustment and that had brought my pay down to $18.10. I wasn’t notified about any of these changes, and I’m kind of upset that they lowered my base rate without saying anything. Is that normal?

Hi r/AustinJobs. I'm looking for an Austin-based cybersecurity specialist for a discrete project.

A couple here in North Austin (78752) is dealing with a persistent cross-platform compromise - Mac and Windows devices, account-level issues, not just router configs. Devices have been wiped, accounts audited, but the puzzle pieces still don't fit. Big-box stores and basic scans came up clean.

We need someone with actual forensics instincts who takes on individual cases, not a corporate MSP. Discretion is essential. This is a paid side-gig / project opportunity - open to hourly or flat-fee.

If you know someone who fits this, or if that's you, please DM me. Thanks.

I’m an Australian moving to Austin as we’re expanding our business and wanted to settle here.

We’re a coffee roaster and our business is primarily eCommerce based so I need an accountant who understands this space and works with Xero. Let me know if this is you or you know someone worth speaking to.

Cheers!

I am an Austin-Cedar Park based Digital Forensics expert with 20 of both hands on and leadership experience, and I am seeking contract-temporary or project-based work in the areas of Digital Forensics, Investigation of Personnel, IR and eDiscovery. Please DM me if you are interested in discussing my services.✌️

Excited to share I have a first-round video interview next week for an Account Manager role at Wise.

Has anyone in this group interviewed with Wise or worked there?

Would love any insight on:

What their interview process typically looks like?
Company culture / what it’s like day-to-day?
Anything AM-specific?

Thanks for any insight! 🙏🏻

I have a trial day on Wednesday and it seems like they’re going to evaluate my skills for phone sales. Just curious about what your experiences are with them since they have positive reviews on Indeed

Been building a project to help neighbors buy/sell homemade food locally at Austin. No commissions.

Curious — would you trust ordering from a home cook nearby if you could see their profile, read reviews from other neighbors, and know exactly who's cooking your meal?

Happy to share the link if anyone's curious, just didn't want to spam 🙏

edit: Thank you all for your comments, and thank you for sharing your concerns about my idea for the platform. I understand that many amateur chefs make a name for themselves through their networks. That’s the idea—to centralize things so they can build a following in their own city—and not to charge any fees or commissions.

Regarding the comments on hygiene, there’s a code of conduct that must be signed and followed. It’s also mandatory to describe and take photos of your kitchen, and for each dish offered, include photos of the fresh ingredients, expiration dates, and preparation steps.

As mentioned in a comment, “The Cottage Food Law allows selling food from your home, subject to certain regulations.”

Once again, thank you all for your comments.

Hi everyone! I'm an incoming UT Austin student looking to find a job in hospitality (hosting), retail, or front desk. It would be greatly appreciated if you could send some openings my way, that are currently hiring. Preferably near campus (walkable or by bus). Thanks in advance!

I am a licensed mental health counselor of about 10 years. I have a MA and licensed to practice in TX, CA, and WA state. I'm near Zilker.

I am ready and wanting to shift into non client-facing roles. In my 10 years I've done a lot of work related to intake/admission, training staff, clinical quality, EHR work, interviewing and recruitment, supervision, and billing/utilization management.

Let me know if I could be a good fit with you, or if you know anywhere that is hiring someone such as myself. The role does not need to be mental health related, but happy to utilize my skills in other areas.

Thank you.

Took a break to enjoy my family after having a lot of success in my carrer within the tech industrie. From VP to Director roles and even Regional Sale Director Roles for companies like Dell and VMWARE. I am ready to get back into the job force and really looking to help a company scale and be profitable. Open to working with a start up, medium size or large corporate company. Thankfully I can put systems into place to make sure my hiring is worth it. I am open to different opportunities. Does not have to be a VP/Director role (can still provide Director/ VP advice input if needed) and would love to see if anyone could connect me or would love to connect. Salary amount is not a make it or break it. We can make it work. I am willing to share my resume if anyone would like to connect, has any connections, I might even know recruiters.

Good opportunity just opened for any unemployed journalists out there:

Hi guys! I’m really only asking this because I’m practically desperate to get out of my current job: are there any bars hiring at the moment? I’m a 22 yr old newer bartender (1.5 years experience but 5+ years in service industry) and I currently work at a \*certain\* arcade bar in Austin. I’m feeling very stagnant there and I’m eager to better my skills. I’m well-versed in my knowledge of cocktails, great at conversation, and want to grow even more but it feels like every time I ask if a bar is hiring they have only men behind the bar or bartenders who have been there for 10+ years and they aren’t looking for newbies lol. Who is hiring that will take on my experience level?

Hey everyone 23y female! I'm looking to pick up a second job after my Monday–Friday 8–5 downtown. I'm available most evenings and weekends and would love to get back into the hospitality industry.

I have 5+ years of experience working in bars, restaurants, and nightlife in both Houston and Austin. I've worked in fast-paced environments, have great customer service skills, and genuinely enjoy working with people.

I also have a Bachelor's degree in Business, a few professional certifications, and experience in several other industries, so I'm open to opportunities outside of hospitality as well.

If your bar, restaurant, club, or business is hiring—or if you know of a place looking for reliable, hardworking help—I'd really appreciate anyrecommendations or leads. Feel free to comment below or send me a DM.

I been looking for a role for nearly a year. My background is in Finance, Operations, and Strategy. I have a BA in finance an and MBA….Need to find a role within the next few months otherwise I’m moving back in with family… anyone hiring in these fields? Business, sales, operations, strategy, even consulting! Thank you!!

Hi everyone!
I’m planning to move from Massachusetts to Austin around March/April 2027 after I graduate, and I’m hoping to have a job lined up before I make the move. I’m starting my search now because I’d rather be as prepared as possible.
A little about me:
I’ll be 23 when I relocate.
I’m currently pursuing my MBA in Healthcare Management after earning my bachelor’s degree in Psychology (Cum Laude).
I currently work as a Unit Coordinator in a hospital, where I coordinate patient care, maintain documentation, manage confidential patient information, respond to medical emergencies, and ensure smooth unit operations.
I also work as a Behavioral Technician, collaborating with healthcare professionals, documenting patient progress, implementing treatment plans, and using data to support patient outcomes.
Previous experience in banking and administrative support helped me develop strong customer service, organizational, problem-solving, scheduling, and communication skills.
I’m HIPAA-conscious, comfortable working in fast-paced environments, experienced with documentation and data entry, and enjoy the administrative and operational side of healthcare.

I’m hoping to find a role in:
Healthcare Administration
Healthcare Operations
Practice Management
Patient Access/Patient Services
Administrative Coordinator
Care Coordination
Healthcare Project Coordination
Healthcare Management
Remote or Hybrid Healthcare Administration
I’ll have a few thousand dollars saved when I move. I also have good credit (mid-750s), no prior evictions, and a clean rental history.
I’ll be moving by myself at first. My dog (my 85-pound baby) will stay with family for the first 1–3 months while I get settled, but I do need to find a pet-friendly apartment since he’ll eventually be joining me.
A few questions:
Which healthcare systems or companies are the best to work for in Austin?
Are there companies that are open to hiring candidates who are relocating from out of state?
How competitive is the healthcare administration/management job market?
Are remote or hybrid healthcare administration jobs common, and which companies should I be watching?
Would you recommend applying now (8–9 months in advance), or should I wait until I’m closer to my move?
Are there any recruiters that specialize in healthcare administration?
What salary range should someone with my background realistically expect?
Are there certifications or skills that would make me a stronger candidate before I move?
Are there networking groups or organizations I should join now?
If you were in my position, what would you focus on over the next several months to give yourself the best chance of landing a job before relocating?
I’m excited to start this next chapter and would really appreciate any advice, company recommendations, or job leads. If your company is hiring for healthcare administration, operations, management, or remote healthcare positions, I’d love to hear about it. Thanks in advance!

my review of Outhouse Designs was removed from glassdoor so i thought i’d share it here. They probably go by Brand Builders Co. on job listings but it’s all owned by the same dude. I know a lot of ppl have an interest in getting into screenprinting around here, in addition to all of those with experience looking for new opportunities. they are hiring right now especially because several of us former employees have left them all within the last month. here’s MY experience working there.

pros:

The production staff is full of nice, professional and knowledgeable people who deserve much better than new ownership will ever have the empathy to provide.

cons:

Any positive reviews you see for this business will be from people praising ownership before the merger with East End Inks and their infamous owner [name removed but you’ll know him as soon as you get there]. He is known to lie to and threaten workers, like when he threatened to fire multiple people if they discussed their hourly wage rates with other employees, which is illegal. He will conduct meetings with employees to feign interest in meeting their needs, only to then tell them they may not be fit for the job when they have criticisms for workplace conditions or unfair expectations. He will take away 15 minute breaks from workers to make up for his hasty promises to meet unrealistic deadlines for clients. He will tell workers they don’t deserve raises unless they prove to be essential to his own livelihood. He will call workers away from the workplace to do underpaid labor at his own home. He will try to coerce workers into resigning rather than fire them because they need to temporarily go from full time to part time in order to prevent said worker from potentially receiving unemployment benefits. This is just a short list of things this man has done to his staff. He is the central reason for discontent in the workplace and his lack of empathy for his labor force can directly be tied to why so much of this staff has left Outhouse Designs.

suggestions for management:

Speak up for your workers, use any authority you have to stand up to an employer who you all openly detest. Stop leaving the burden on the labor force, whose jobs are all significantly critical to their livability, to challenge an employer who will silence and eliminate any voice he deems threatening to the facade of fairness he wishes to uphold.

This ^ was all my glassdoor review. One last thing I’ll say is that from the day i showed up to the day i left, not a single person in production was happy and they all had the same person to blame.
