Land a hospitality job during ABC13's virtual job fair and earn $250 sign-on bonus
GALVESTON, Texas (KTRK) -- Our ABC13+ series is in Galveston, and we're looking to help those who need a job.
ABC13 partnered with Workforce Solutions Friday to host a virtual job fair that featured more than 1,000 jobs in the Galveston and Houston area.
Galveston has experienced a big swing in its unemployment rate.
In April 2020, it soared to 19.2%. Last month, it was at 6.9%.
A big reason for the decline is the re-emergence of hospitality jobs. Even more are coming soon.
Cruises are scheduled to restart in three weeks. Many industry companies are hiring now.
