Northline Job Fair — Thursday, October 29
9:00 AM – 2:00 PM | Workforce Solutions Northline, 4424 North Freeway, Suite A, Houston, TX 77022
This event has passed.
This is the broadest of the three: a general job fair at the Northline career office, just off I-45 north of Loop 610. The Workforce Solutions event listing doesn't name the employers, so treat it as a walk-in-and-see room. For a sense of who turns up, the office's June job fair promoted more than 15 employers in warehouse and distribution, manufacturing and customer service. That was June, not this Thursday, so come ready to talk about whatever you do best. The listing shows no registration link. Questions go to Workforce Solutions East at 713-493-0052.
True Love Childcare Hiring Event — Thursday, October 29
10:00 AM – 12:00 PM | Workforce Solutions Humble, 9668 FM 1960 Bypass Rd. W., Humble, TX 77338
This event has passed.
True Love Childcare is recruiting teachers and van drivers. It is a two-hour window, so get there early. The event listing asks attendees to register in advance. Childcare jobs in Texas come with state background checks, and anyone driving kids should expect a look at their driving record, so bring your license and any CPR, first aid or early-childhood credentials you already hold. The listing doesn't post pay or headcount. Questions go to Workforce Solutions North at 832-645-1697.
Waffle House Hiring Event — Thursday, October 29
10:00 AM – 1:00 PM | Workforce Solutions Conroe, 2218 I-45 North, Conroe, TX 77301
This event has passed.
Waffle House is hiring cooks and servers at the Conroe career office in Montgomery County. If you have worked a grill or a busy breakfast floor, this is your room. Waffle House runs around the clock, so open availability, nights and weekends included, makes you a stronger candidate. The event listing doesn't mention pre-registration or pay, and it doesn't say which restaurant locations are staffing up. Questions go to Workforce Solutions North at 832-645-1697.
🔎 How to Pick the Right One
All three run at the same time on Thursday morning, and Northline to Conroe is about 40 miles of I-45. Most people will have time for one, so choose by where you live and the work you want:
- Open to anything, inside the Loop or north side: Northline. It's the only open job fair of the three, and it runs the longest, until 2 PM.
- Classroom or childcare experience, or a clean driving record: True Love Childcare in Humble. Register first, and arrive close to 10 AM.
- Restaurant and kitchen workers in The Woodlands, Conroe or Willis: Waffle House in Conroe.
What to Bring to Any of Them
- Several printed copies of an updated resume
- A current photo ID, plus whatever documents you use to show you can work in the U.S.
- Your driver's license and any certifications you hold, such as food handler, CPR or childcare credentials
- A clear answer about which days and shifts you can work
- Business casual clothes and a short introduction you've practiced out loud
