Text reads: Take your career to new heights with AUS. Austin-bergstrom international airport job showcase & hiring fair

AUS hosts first-ever job showcase and hiring fair this fall

AUSTIN, Texas – Austin-Bergstrom International Airport (AUS) invites local residents and Central Texans to a hiring event to learn more about a variety of employment opportunities across the airport and air travel industry including those with the Department of Aviation, Transportation Security Administration (TSA), select AUS airlines and AUS food and retail concessions. Hosted by the City of Austin Department of Aviation, the hiring event will connect job-seekers directly with airport teams and employers for a chance to learn more about career opportunities ranging from food, beverage, retail and hospitality to airport operations, security, federal operations and airline operations.
 
“This is a transformative time for our airport,” said Gina Fiandaca, Assistant City Manager for Mobility. “As Austinites have shown record-breaking demand for air service this year, our airport teams are working together across the airport to connect Austinites to even more nonstop destinations than ever before. I applaud the Department of Aviation, airlines, TSA and concessions for coming together to find solutions to the labor shortage that has impacted airports and airline operations here at home in Austin and across the world.”
 
The AUS Job Showcase & Hiring Fair will be on Tuesday, September 20 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Austin Southpark Hotel located at 4140 Governors Row.
 
“AUS is home to hundreds of different teams and supports thousands of direct and indirect jobs,” said Jacqueline Yaft, Chief Executive Officer for AUS. “We look forward to welcoming more talented professionals across a wide range of trades and professions to our airport. One of the most exciting and fulfilling things about a career in airport management or the air travel industry is getting to work alongside so many different teams and partners with the shared goal of serving our community.”
 
AUS employers are currently hiring for entry-level, supervisor and management positions. Effective October 1, 2022, the City of Austin Department of Aviation and other airport employers will offer a minimum wage of $20 per hour, with select employers offering sign-on bonuses.
 
The Job Showcase & Hiring Fair is open to the public who can come and go during the event at any time, as no appointment is needed. During the event, attendees will get the chance to learn about employment opportunities and apply for jobs with airport employers including:
