Welcome to the City of Houston career fair! Each summer, city departments open their doors to those who want to learn about current career opportunities with the city.
The City of Houston can’t function without great employees. We’re always on the lookout for talented, caring people to join us. Employment with the City of Houston represents more than just a job. A career in public service is an opportunity to serve fellow citizens across our city. Professions in city government help to support many aspects of life in Houston and considering a career in public service is an honorable choice.
The City offers an outstanding comprehensive benefits program that is competitive with other employers. Regular, full-time employees and designated PT30 employees are eligible to participate in these programs, as described in each plan.
Previous hiring events have been well attended and it keeps getting better. Last year we hired more than 100 candidates. We look forward to more this year.
My journey to a career in the City of Houston began at the 2022 COH career fair. I interviewed for the position of senior human resources generalist and had a follow-up interview. The rest is history, as I am in my second year with the City of Houston.
