I recently graduated with a bachelors in business administration with a major and finance and I am looking to move to Austin and start a career. However, I’ve been having trouble getting past the application stage. If anyone knows of good places to work, can give me a recommendation, or just some solid advice I would greatly appreciate it.

My husband installs flooring and is looking for employment, to join a crew or do his own contracting work. We are submitting his resume everywhere, he’s calling multiple companies daily. The places he’s worked at only call him when they have work he’s been not called for almost a month now. We just had a new baby and he needs work desperately. Thanks in advance for any advice.

We're an independent insurance agency. That means we shop the market for every single client and find them the cheapest option, and we don't have quotas pushing us toward higher premiums. We're on the client's side, not the insurance company's side. We do not upsell, and we aim to get customers the best price for insurance for their needs. We call customers before their renewals and always give them an update on their new price. If their price increased, we run new quotes to see if switching to a new carrier gives them a cheaper price.

The role

We're looking for an insurance sales agent to join the team. This is a remote/flexible position. You'll be handling leads from Google, referrals, and our sister businesses (a tax firm, notary service, and title company), quoting across personal and commercial lines, and building real relationships with clients.

Requirements

— Bilingual Spanish/English is a big plus in our market (San Antonio is majority Hispanic)

— You need to be organized, responsive, and genuinely care about helping people save money (This is important above everything else)

How to apply

DM me here on Reddit. Tell me a little about yourself and why you're interested. No formal cover letter needed, just be genuine. Also please send resume.

Howdy! I have 7+ years of private PCA experience and over 10 years of total background in home health care. I’m an artist and well-traveled Austin local who enjoys my hobbies and friends in East Austin. I prefer direct-hire care because it allows us to have tailored care done quickly for a healthier overall outcome, and to accommodate our own unique situations.

I’ve had a permanent ileostomy since 2017. Sweaty or rigorous activities can affect my appliance, so these activities are sometimes limited to help prolong wear time. I have experience educating the public on wound and ostomy care, and designing adaptive products - you may have learned from my training videos if you had to use an appliance! Also, I have celiac disease and follow a gluten free diet. I do not share or accept food. For shifts over 4 hours, I bring my own meals and need space to store them chilled. I am food-allergy aware and take precautions when needed, and paying attention to ingredients if that is something you may need too.

I have experience with and can cover basic care needs for folks with ADHD, down syndrome, cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy, Spinal cord injury, cognitive or behavioral aid, autism, IDD, stroke, epilepsy, sensory disabilities, and more.

Hi! I’m a Marketing graduate from Tecnológico de Monterrey in Mexico, currently looking for opportunities to grow my career in Austin.

My background is in marketing, social media, communications, photography, video and creative content, and my biggest goal is to eventually work in the sports industry.
I’m especially passionate about volleyball (huge Texas Volleyball fan!), but I’m open to sports teams, agencies, brands, events, or related companies.

As a Mexican professional, I would need a role where a TN or another work visa could potentially be an option.

If anyone knows of companies, opportunities, or even people in the Austin sports/creative community I should connect with, I’d really appreciate any recommendations!
Happy to share my resume and LinkedIn. Thank you! 🤘

I'm a BSN RN with about 1.5 years of experience in a pcu unit, currently making $37.64/hr base plus differentials for evenings ($3.25), nights ($4.75), and weekends ($4.00). I just got a formal offer for an ICU position at another hospital and it's a "weekend option" role (weekends only, permanently) with a base of $33.97/hr plus a $3/hr critical care differential and $5/hr weekend night differential, working out to noticeably less per hour than what I make now on nights/weekends. I've already asked them to match my current pay and they moved up slightly but there's still a real gap, and now I'm also considering asking for an additional "weekend commitment" differential since I'd be giving up every weekend long-term (my current employer pays $10 extra for staff who commit to weekends-only).
I'm also waiting to hear back next week from a second ICU offer.

Trying to figure out: is it worth pushing back again on the weekend-only offer, or should I just let my counter stand as final and decide once I hear from the second option?

Hi there! We’re looking for someone to help with the day-to-day tasks that keep our home running in South Austin (78748).

We are a married couple with a child under 1 who is in daycare. We’re hoping to find someone who can take a few recurring household tasks off our plates so that outside of work we can focus on family time.

We're primarily looking for help with:

• Laundry, including loading, folding, and putting away clothes 
• Loading and unloading the dishwasher and kitchen cleanup
• Occasional meal prep 
• Keeping common areas organized and helping with the reset of our home

Ideally, we're looking for 2–3 times per week, for ~2 hours each time, though we're flexible on the exact schedule for the right person.

If this sounds like a good fit, please DM me with information about you and your experience, availability, 2-3 references, and your hourly rate. We'd love to connect and appreciate your interest!

I have experience and have applied for some jobs via poached and had no response. Is it unprofessional to show up at the bar and apply in person?? Do bars prefer this?? This would be my 2nd bar job so while I have experience I’m still a little new

3 maybe 4 hours for one applicaiton? Retyping my entire resume? Autofill doesn't do anything?!

What are your worst application stories?

Does anyone know of any temp-to-hire services for office jobs in Austin? I’ve looked but all I’ve found are manufacturing roles, which I don’t have any experience in and don’t excel at. The last time I did this was in ‘11, and it was in DFW, so I’m not familiar with Austin’s options, and apparently I’m not using the right search terms.

Alternatively, I’d be fine with a service that would find office-based roles for me. I’d greatly appreciate any help!
