Internet Marketing Houston Tx
Are there jobs in Houston, TX?
I’m serious about this. I live in northern indiana and the rv inustry is pretty much on its last leg. People are losing their jobs left and right here. I was looking on the internet for the best cities in the U.S. to live and Houston was in the top 10. I would seriously think about relocating if I felt confident there are jobs down there. Right now I work in a cabinet shop and since the housing market is way down, so are our orders. I understand it’s this way in all the states or atleast most of them. Is there anyone who could give me a good difinitive link for Houston for jobs? Or some kind of information to help me in my search? Thanks!!
There are plenty of jobs in Houston for skilled labor. The first guy sounds like a recruiter. Houston hasn’t been hit too hard by the recession. Its appears you need blue collar work like I do. If you are union, you may be let down, as unions in Texas have low membership. If your non-union, you will surely find work. Cabinet makers wages are anywhere from $16 to $25 an hour. Most construction workers work often overtime. I was working at least 50 hours a week in Houston. Texas doesn’t have a state income tax. In Houston you can find 24 hour banks like Woodforest, they post your checks right away. Many industries work around the clock, and if you can get into chemical plants/refineries you can make some real money. Its hard to get hired by the actual plant, but contractors always need manpower. The reality is its doesn’t hurt to learn some Spanish. You will be in Texas, not the midwest.
I would recommend looking for plant work, or skilled construction. Most skilled workers are foreman, and most foreman drive company trucks, gas card, and Nextel.
Living in the loop, inside the 610 loop which is inner Houston, can be expensive. Good areas of Houston are Cypress, west Houston, Clear Lake, or Spring. You can’t afford Sugarland, rich yuppies. Hope the AC in your truck works, you will need it, gas is not too expensive like other states. Electricity is high in the summer, and low in winter. The opposite of your cold winters. Winter can get cold even though there isn’t snow, so bring your Carhartts. There is plenty of overtime in most trades, so even if you take a pay cut, it should balance out. Many companies have overtime, plus the lower cost of living, balances it out. I relocated temporarily to Colorado. The huge pay raise I got was counter balanced by how expensive everything is, and the lack of overtime. Good luck here are some websites.
