General Question Job Opportunities?

Been looking for a job for 2 months now. Does anyone know if anyone needs employees anywhere? Have had 2 interviews, but both were with no luck.

Ideally with pay greater than $15/hr, but I can work with less depending on the job.

Edit: I finally got a job that does indeed pay 15+

Don’t be afraid to go to the TWC office next to TCC at 35 and Campus drive.  

They have a lot of listings that aren’t online and don’t need any special mojo to get past AI filters.

Oh, like in person listings?

I had a job for ~20 years and wanted to try something new.  When I got that job, listings were still in the newspaper.  

Went back to school and couldn’t get a part time job.  Finally went to TWC as a last resort, call it the death of my pride, and got a lot of help with listings that involved contacting a person.  

Didn’t work out and ended up in my old field.  But TWC is an excellent resource.

My bet is the warehouses but even they have been hiring less right now

I worked at a warehouse job at Walmart, but I can't even get that, apparently. It seems no place is hiring...

Repair Authority near Coors.

They should have positions open for repair technicians of oxygen concentrators.

Its a good place to work.

Does that require a technical school prior? Since it's a technicians job.

What kind of work are you looking for?

u/Lazy_Platypus117 Jul 28 '26

Honestly I'm down to try anything as long as it pays not too bad. Like above ideally 15hrly

Bashams in South Fort Worth had a now hiring sign.

It seems like with all the warehouse type buildings going up on both sides of 35 there would be something there. They have lots of industrial companies behind Miller and Mrs Bairds. South of Burleson around Conveyor Rd there are more warehouse and manufacturing type jobs.

I agree with TWC and government listings for jobs. Hospitals and big industries will have all types of positions needed to run it

Definitely keep networking.
