On Thursday, the state hosted its annual "Red, White, and You" hiring event. The event was virtual this year to help vets in the Houston area find jobs. Many of those positions were available as well as others during ABC13's job fair. Many of the jobs are geared towards veterans, but anyone is welcome to apply.
Some of the positions available include software developers, customer service representatives and warehouse workers. The pay ranges from $10 to $25 an hour.
In order to participate in future virtual job fairs, head to ABC13's Facebook page every Thursday at 3 p.m. and look for the live stream. During the half-hour event, Workforce Solutions recruiters answer calls, emails and applications to line up qualified individuals for interviews days after the event.
