How to Land a Job at the 2026 North Texas Job Fair in Arlington

Share

The 2026 North Texas Job Fair returns to Globe Life Field on Thursday, Aug. 6, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Last year's event drew more than 500 employers and over 35,000 attendees, so a little prep goes a long way. Here's how to make the most of it.

Step-by-Step

  1. Register in advance at myNTXjobs.com.

Browse the full list of participating employers before you go so you can prioritize which booths to hit first.

  1. Bring multiple printed résumés.

Sectors on-site range from healthcare and aviation to manufacturing, energy, law enforcement, government, and nonprofit work — tailor a version or two if you're open to more than one field.

  1. Arrive early.

The fair runs 11 a.m.–3 p.m.; last year's event drew more than 35,000 attendees, so an early arrival means shorter lines at the most popular booths.

  1. Dress for an in-person interview.

Some employers conduct on-the-spot interviews at the fair, for roles ranging from entry-level to C-suite.

  1. Park and enter at Globe Life Field, 734 Stadium Drive.

The venue sits in Arlington's Entertainment District, with stadium parking available on-site.

  1. Follow up within 48 hours.

Note the names of recruiters you spoke with and send a short thank-you email referencing your conversation.

This will be the fifth year the fair has been hosted by Congresswoman Beth Van Duyne, according to the City of Arlington.
