How hard is it to find a receptionist job in Houston?

Question

Or some kind of clerical job? Also how much do they generally get per hour?

Answer 1

don't take advice on pay in houston from someone living in san francisco.

the cost of living is more expensive in ca than in tx, therefor the rate at which people get paid in ca will be more than in tx.

for a receptionist position or a general clerical position your rate will be about $8.00 to $12.00/hour.

if you have great experience, that can greatly increase.

if you start with a temp agency the can also help negotiate a higher rate.

best of luck.

Answer 2

Your best bet is through an agency. They'll have the feelers into companies and will hear about jobs before they are listed. I don't know about receptionist jobs, but clerical jobs start out in the $10 per hour range, but they usually come with insurance (you never know you need it until you have it).

Answer 3

not very hard if you know the right people or get to know them. go to Burnettstaffing.com or call HoustonWorks! or go to workintexas.org and put together a profile. In houston, those jobs ago anywhere from $7.00 to $18.00 an hour depending on experience. i am in school part time and work full time at a hospital and make $16+ an hour. i have only been in this 2yrs. God is good. Just start off by getting connected. Houston works is excellent about job placement.

Answer 4

It's easy. I don't live in Houston but San Francisco. If you can't find a permenant job as a receptionist, you can register with a temp agency. They have a lot of receptionist jobs. They usually pay 13 to 16 an hour.
