Tips for Employers & Job Seekers

1. Why is the Texas Municipal League Career Center so successful?

The Texas Municipal League (TML) Career Center benefits both employers and job seekers with easy navigation, instant access to job postings, and complete and timely information. The TML Career Center is the number one destination on the TML website. Frequently, the TML Career Center produces better results than local newspapers for both employers and job seekers.

The number of visits average around 340,000 a month as well as 1,700 active jobs per day.

2. As an employer, what are the benefits?: Job openings are posted immediately, and each employer has the ability to track each job posting. Once your job has been posted, you can make edits as needed, see how many times it has been viewed, or even close the job. Past job openings are archived, so they can be reused if you need to re-post a position. Contact the Career Center for more information.

3. As a job seeker, what are the benefits?: The Texas Municipal League Career Center allows you to create a profile that can include multiple resumes, which you are then able to submit electronically. When searching for a job, you can identify the location where you would like to work, select from numerous job categories, and input keywords to specify the type of opportunity you are seeking. You also have the option to browse all jobs and/or browse jobs by a particular employer. Contact the Career Center for more information.

4. Who can submit a Texas Municipal League Career Center job opportunity?: Any Texas Municipal League member city may post a job opportunity at no charge. Private sector companies may post job opportunities at a cost of $100 per 30 days if they are a member of TML. For non-members, the cost is $200 per 30 days.

Texas Municipal League reserves the right to screen all submissions and deny any considered inappropriate. Contact the Career Center for more information.

5. What if I want to make changes or cancel a Career Center job opportunity?: You have direct access to your posting. You will need to log in and go to My Jobs. To make changes, click on Action/Edit. To cancel, click on Stop (this allows the job to be available for future postings). Contact the Career Center for more information.

6. Do you have any suggestions before I place my job opportunity?

Double check your job opportunity for accuracy and spelling.
After your job opportunity has been posted, view it online and click on the links to verify they work correctly.
Do not use all caps. This is the internet version of shouting and generally does not look professional.
