What This Job Fair Is, and Who's Behind It
Workforce Solutions Capital Area, the public workforce board for Austin and Travis County, lists this one on its own hiring-events calendar and runs the Eventbrite registration page. The host site is Meadowbrook, a housing authority community south of Lady Bird Lake.
The event page describes two things happening at once. You can explore openings with the housing authority, and you can meet other employers recruiting that morning. The Eventbrite listing calls it a fair with employers "from all industries" and refers to the agency as the Austin Housing Authority.
Here is what has not been published yet: a list of the employers attending, which positions they're filling, and how many. We won't guess. Treat this as a meet-the-recruiters morning, bring a resume that fits more than one kind of job, and watch the listing for an employer roster.
⚠️ Read This Before You Go
- It's short. Two hours, ending at noon. Arrive early.
- Eligibility isn't spelled out. Neither listing says the fair is limited to residents, but neither says it's open to everyone, either. Because it's held at a residential community, call the Workforce Solutions North Career Center at 512-454-9675 before you go if you don't live at Meadowbrook.
- Cost isn't listed. Workforce board job fairs are normally free to job seekers, but this listing doesn't say so. Registering on Eventbrite ahead of time is the easy way to find out.
📋 How to Show Up Ready
Print several copies of a one-page resume. Have a 30-second introduction that covers what you do and what you want next. If you've worked in maintenance, leasing, customer service, admin or caseworker roles, lead with that experience: it lines up with the kind of work a housing agency and its partners usually hire for, even though no roles have been confirmed for this fair.
Bring a government-issued ID and a list of references with phone numbers.
