Is your career lacking stability, longevity, or fulfillment?<\/span><\/p>\n If you’re a current resident of Tarrant County or considering relocating to the area, you’re in luck.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n If you’ve found this page, you’re probably considering working for the government. Tarrant County has plenty of government jobs across all departments and fields, so regardless of your background, you’re sure to find one that fits your needs.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Have you already started your government job hunt and haven’t been able to find a solid resource?<\/span><\/p>\n That’s where we come in.<\/b><\/p>\n In this article, you’ll find the best online resource to find government jobs in Texas<\/a> and a few tips and tricks for the entire hiring process.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n You’re only as good as your first impression. How do you want to portray yourself to potential employers?<\/span><\/p>\n Before you start applying for jobs, revamping your resume, cover letter, and LinkedIn profile is important.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Yes, even your <\/span>LinkedIn<\/span><\/a> profile. Did you know that most employers will review your profile before reaching out for an interview?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n LinkedIn is a professional and relatively trustworthy site, and employers appreciate being able to quickly vet applicants by skimming through their profiles, reviewing their work history, and seeing if they have an online presence.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Look through your employment history there and update it as needed. Also, clean up any posts that may deter you from landing a government role.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n When was the last time you updated your resume? You never want to submit a resume to an employer without cleaning it up and adding useful information.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n For example, say you’ve only worked in customer service over the past ten years. Now, you’re applying for an administrative support role. Do you think potential employers are going to be satisfied with a resume dedicated to customer service?<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Not likely.\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n That’s why you want to curate your resume to the type of position or field you’re interested in working for. Your customer service background certainly gave you experience and skills that can help you excel in a support role; you just need to highlight that experience and showcase it throughout your resume.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Search Form SJB” module_class=”sjb-search-form” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” background_image=”https:\/\/www.careersingovernment.com\/tools\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/A-man-wearing-a-suit-walking-in-the-street-Tarrant-County-Careers-in-Government.jpg” min_height=”450px” custom_padding=”0px||0px||true|false” collapsed=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”2_5,3_5″ _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_sidebar area=”cs-6″ _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_sidebar][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ custom_padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” admin_label=”Section text Part Two” module_class=”cig-blog-details” _builder_version=”4.17.3″ max_width=”1024px” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”|auto||auto|false|false” custom_padding=”|0px|0|0px|false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”50px|0|50px|0″ custom_padding_phone=”” collapsed=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_padding_mobile=”on” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|tablet” admin_label=”row” _builder_version=”4.17.3″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” max_width=”1200px” custom_padding=”20px||0px|” custom_padding_tablet=”0px|||” custom_padding_phone=”” use_custom_width=”on” custom_width_px=”1200px” collapsed=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.17.3″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.21.0″ text_font=”PT Serif||||” text_text_color=”#363636″ text_font_size=”24″ text_line_height=”1.5em” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” min_height=”929px” custom_margin=”0px||0px|” custom_padding=”||30px||false|false” hover_enabled=”0″ text_font_size_tablet=”” text_font_size_phone=”” text_font_size_last_edited=”on|tablet” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n Get creative with your approach. It’s helpful to review job postings online for positions you’re interested in and look at the expectations of the role. Use those expectations to find where you’ve already performed these duties in your past roles.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Go through each of your past employers and only list responsibilities that are in alignment with the field you’re applying for. This is what employers want to see. Sure, your other experience is important, but if it doesn’t apply to the positions you’re applying for, you’re not going to look qualified.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Are you planning to include a cover letter?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n If not, don’t expect to get very far. Cover letters are like the handshake of applying for jobs. Put your best foot forward and make a great first impression.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n What makes a powerful cover letter?\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n Don’t treat your cover letter like your resume. You already listed your past employment on your application; there’s no need to include it here.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Your cover letter is essentially your sales pitch.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n How well can you sell yourself?<\/b><\/p>\n Tell the employer why you’re the perfect fit for the role and what you can bring to the table. Go into your experience a bit, but only as it applies to the job.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Whether you’re applying to the Texas Department of Education, or as a City Manager, crew leader, public administration, or an administrative or public health position–always include a cover letter.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Tarrant County is a melting pot for government jobs. Right now, there are hundreds of available positions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n So, where do you find them?<\/span><\/p>\n You can search through endless job boards that mix and match both government and non-government jobs. Or, you can save time and energy and go directly to the source: <\/span>www.CareersInGovernment.com<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n At Careers in Government, we pride ourselves on providing the best, more current government jobs available online.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n To use our site, you must enter “Tarrant County” on our homepage directly in the location search bar.
