Texas, along with Mississippi, leads the country in the percentage of state residents working in a minimum wage job. But there is also data that says that the state did create a good number of relatively well paying jobs. It is also undeniable that Texas kept adding huge numbers of jobs in the last three years while most of the country kept losing jobs.

Testimonial of the Week

What I liked about the service is that it had such a comprehensive collection of jobs! I was using a number of sites previously and this took up so much time, but in joining EmploymentCrossing, I was able to stop going from site to site and was able to find everything I needed on EmploymentCrossing.

By using Employment Crossing, I was able to find a job that I was qualified for and a place that I wanted to work at.
