Fall 2026 Fort Worth Job Fairs & Hiring Events: Your Complete Guide

FORT WORTH, TX — Fall is when Fort Worth job fairs stop being a rumor and start showing up on the calendar. Between the last day of September and the first week of December, the Workforce Solutions for Tarrant County calendar has nine hiring events on the books, from a full-size fair on the Texas Wesleyan campus to short sessions where one or two employers bring a stack of openings to a workforce center on the east side, the southeast side, up at Alliance and out in the Mid-Cities. Macy's added a holiday hiring day at its Tarrant County stores in late October, and Catalyst Career Group brings a free hotel fair to the west side on November 19.

Eleven Fort Worth-area hiring events from September 30 to December 4, 2026, and eight have already taken place. Here are the employers, roles and addresses we could confirm for each one.

2026 Fort Worth Area Job Fair — Wednesday, September 30

10:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. | Texas Wesleyan University, Nick and Lou Martin University Center, 3165 E Rosedale St, Fort Worth, TX 76105

This event has passed.

The big one this month, and the only full-scale fair on the workforce board's calendar inside Fort Worth before December. It's free, open to job seekers of any background, and the organizer's event page links the employer list and the registration form. Free headshots are on offer, so dress for the photo. Parking is free across campus, including Lots D and E and a grass lot at Collard Avenue and Avenue B, with a shuttle running from the remote lot. → See details

Central Workforce Center Hiring Fair Days — Thursday, October 1

10:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. | Central Workforce Center, 1515 S. Sylvania Ave, Fort Worth, TX 76111

This event has passed.

A two-hour session with two employers and a clear lean toward outdoor and construction work. Integrity Designs is hiring a landscape construction foreman and landscape crew members. Labor Finders is filling electrical and plumbing apprentice spots and a carpenter role based in Burleson, plus certified traffic flaggers. If you already hold a flagger certification, bring proof of it. The event listing links each posting, and pay is not published there, so read the posting before you go.

Tarrant County Sheriff's Office Detention Officer Hiring — Tuesday, October 6

9:00 – 11:00 a.m. | Central Workforce Center, 1515 S. Sylvania Ave, Fort Worth, TX 76111

This event has passed.

One employer, one job: detention officer with the Tarrant County Sheriff's Office. This is public-sector work with a real screening process, so treat the morning as the first step, not the finish line. Age, background and certification requirements live in the posting linked from the event page, and it's worth reading them before you make the drive. It starts at 9:00, an hour earlier than the other center events.

Alliance Employer Hub Hiring Fair Days — Wednesday, October 7

10:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. | WSTC Alliance Employer Hub, 3rd floor of TCC CEATL, 2301 Horizon Dr, Fort Worth, TX 76177

This event has passed.

The deepest roster of the October center events, co-hosted with Tarrant County College up on the north side. MP Materials, the rare earth magnet maker with a plant in north Fort Worth, lists more than a dozen roles, including ten material handler openings along with operators, technicians, engineers and machinists. Benchmark Hospitality is staffing Deloitte University, the firm's training campus in Westlake, with nine cook openings, five server openings, maintenance and front desk agents. Both rosters are on the event page. If you live along I-35W or in Keller, Haslet or Northlake, this is your closest stop. → See details

Resource Connection Hiring Fair Days — Thursday, October 8

10:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. | Resource Connection Workforce Center, 1400 Circle Drive, Fort Worth, TX 76119

This event has passed.

Labor Finders brought back the same four roles it recruited for on October 1: electrical apprentice, plumbing apprentice and carpenter in Burleson, plus certified traffic flagger. Different day, different center, same employer, so this was the second chance for anyone who missed the Sylvania Avenue session. Southeast Fort Worth and Forest Hill residents found Circle Drive close to home. Details are on the event listing.

Mid-Cities Workforce Center Hiring Fair Days — Tuesday, October 13

10:00 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. | Mid-Cities Workforce Center, 8701 Bedford Euless Road, Suite 100, Hurst, TX 76053

This event has passed.

This time the workforce board was the employer. Workforce Solutions for Tarrant County, whose centers are managed by contractor C2 Global Professional Services, recruited for 15 customer service representative openings spread across its career centers countywide. It was one role and one morning, half an hour longer than the other center sessions, a short drive from North Richland Hills, Bedford and Euless. The event listing has the details. → See details

Macy's Holiday Hiring Day — Thursday, October 22

Hours vary by store | Macy's at Hulen Mall in Fort Worth, North East Mall in Hurst and The Parks at Arlington

This event has passed.

Not a fair, but a walk-in day at the stores. Macy's, Inc. is holding nationwide in-person hiring events on three Thursdays this fall, and October 22 is the second, with seasonal store jobs on offer at its Tarrant County locations. There is no registration: apply online at macysJOBS, then walk into the store closest to home. Macy's says times vary by location, so call your store first. Fort Worth is not on the company's list of markets with the most openings, and no local headcount has been released, so treat the day as an open door rather than a set number of jobs. If the 22nd doesn't work, the last hiring day is Thursday, November 19. → See details

15th Annual Hiring Red, White & You! — Thursday, November 5

10:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. | Globe Life Field, 734 Stadium Dr, Arlington, TX 76011

This event has passed.

A short drive east on I-30, and the largest event on this list. The organizer listed 172 employers, employer booths filled up, and the employer list was posted on the organizer's page. Veterans and military spouses got priority access, but the organizer said plainly that it was open to everyone, including the general public. Admission and parking were free, with free headshots, job fair mentors for resume and interview help, and interpreters in Arabic, French, Spanish and Sign Language. → See details

KP Staffing Hiring Event in Hurst — Tuesday, November 17

10:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. | Mid-Cities Workforce Center, 8701 Bedford Euless Road, Suite 100, Hurst, TX 76053

Back to the Mid-Cities center for a two-hour session built around hands-on tech and warehouse work. KP Staffing is recruiting for ten titles on the event listing: computer, server and motherboard repair technicians, electronic technicians and testers, quality control inspectors, UAV assemblers, forklift operators and material handlers. The listing doesn't publish pay, shifts or whether to register, and these are staffing placements, so ask whether a role is temp, temp-to-hire or direct hire. Call the Mid-Cities Workforce Center at 817-413-4000 if you want to confirm anything before you go. → See details

Fort Worth Job Fair at the Courtyard on University Drive — Thursday, November 19

10:00 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. | Courtyard by Marriott Fort Worth University Drive, 3150 Riverfront Drive, Fort Worth, TX 76107

A smaller room on the west side, a week before Thanksgiving. Catalyst Career Group, which has run hotel hiring fairs since 2008, brings employers with open positions across Dallas-Fort Worth to the Courtyard off University Drive, a quick hop from I-30 and the Cultural District. It's free for job seekers, and pre-registration through the organizer's schedule is recommended rather than required. No employer list has been published; the listing casts a wide net across healthcare, warehousing, transportation, manufacturing, sales, banking and government, so bring several printed resumes and ask each table what it is filling. → See details

Congressman Marc Veasey 11th Annual Job Fair — Friday, December 4

10:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. | Texas Wesleyan University, Nick and Lou Martin University Center, 3165 E Rosedale St, Fort Worth, TX 76105

Back to Polytechnic Heights to close out the season. The fair is open to everyone and billed as a chance to interview with employers hiring now. The employer list and flyer haven't been posted yet, and the event page doesn't list a cost, so check back in November before you plan around it. → See details

🔎 How to Pick the Right Ones

  • Seasonal retail and holiday cash: Macy's has one more national hiring day on Thursday, November 19.
  • Tech repair, electronics and warehouse: November 17 in Hurst, where KP Staffing recruits server and electronics techs, QC inspectors and forklift operators.
  • West side, short morning: November 19 at the Courtyard on University Drive. Free, two and a half hours, a mix of industries.
  • Not sure yet: December 4 at Texas Wesleyan. It's open to everyone, and the biggest room left gives you the most chances to find a fit.

What to Bring to Any of Them

  • Printed resumes, more than you think you'll need
  • A photo ID, plus any licenses or certifications the role asks for
  • A short introduction you've practiced out loud
  • Your availability and the pay you're aiming for
  • A pen and a way to take down names for follow-up

Do I need to register in advance?

The larger fairs offer online registration. For November 19, the organizer recommends registering but does not describe it as required. The November 17 listing doesn't mention registration; call the Mid-Cities Workforce Center at 817-413-4000 to confirm.

A short, in-person session at a Tarrant County workforce center where one or two employers recruit for specific posted jobs. It's smaller and more focused than a full job fair.
