ABC13 partnered with Workforce Solutions to host a virtual job fair. The 30-minute event took place Thursday morning on ABC13's website, mobile app and free streaming apps.
More than 200 positions are available in the solar and green industry. One of the companies is building a solar field in Guy, Texas, paying upwards of $18 an hour. The other is looking for thermal solar installers and technicians paying $15 an hour.
Both companies don't require any experience and will train candidates.
Texas is a leader in renewable energy. That's expected to grow under the Biden administration.
The job fair didn't just focus on green jobs, however. More than 200 positions are open in other industries, including education, construction, and leisure and hospitality.
