To apply for a position, you must submit a State of Texas application, resumé, and the TDLR agency required application questions either online through the Texas Workforce Commission’s WorkInTexas.com website or to TDLR via email at jobs@tdlr.texas.gov by the closing date stated on the job posting. Applications submitted via email must list the job posting title and job posting number in the subject line. When a job posting is listed as "Open Until Filled,” it is best to apply as quickly as possible, as the posting may close or be placed on hold at any time without prior notification. Incomplete applications may be disqualified. Applications will NOT be accepted via mail, fax, or hand delivery. If you desire an acknowledgement receipt of your application, you should apply via WorkInTexas.com and one should be auto-generated by TWC. Only applicants interviewed will be notified of their selection or non-selection. All candidates recommended for IT, Lottery, and Bingo positions will be subject to an extensive criminal background investigation, including fingerprinting.
