Job fair seeks Austin workers for infrastructure, manufacturing openings

Austin-area job seekers interested in manufacturing careers will have the opportunity to meet with local employers at the 2025 Manufacturing Job Fair, scheduled for May 23. The event will take place from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Workforce Solutions Capital Area’s North Career Center, located at 9001 N. Interstate Highway 35, Suite 110. Organized by Workforce Solutions Capital Area, the job fair is designed to match candidates with open positions in the region’s growing manufacturing sector, which spans industries from advanced technology to clean energy. Participation is free, and job seekers are encouraged to bring copies of their résumés and dress professionally. Employers will be available on-site to conduct interviews and discuss hiring opportunities. The event comes as demand for skilled manufacturing workers continues to rise across the Austin area, driven in part by major infrastructure projects and expansions in sectors such as transportation and energy. City leaders have made workforce development a key priority, including expanded efforts to train workers for infrastructure-related careers through initiatives like the Austin Infrastructure Academy. Registration is available online.
