Monthly DART Open House Recruiting Events Start February 25

Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) will begin hosting a monthly career fair on Saturday, February 25, from 10:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. at DART Headquarters, 1401 Pacific Avenue, Dallas.

The agency is seeking applicants for open positions in transit operations (bus and rail operators and mechanics), administrative fields (including engineering, finance, technology, and human resources), and the DART Police department.

During the career fair events, applicants will have the opportunity to fill out job applications, meet with hiring officials, and participate in on-site screening interviews for specific roles like bus operators and bus mechanics.

DART Bus Operators

DART is hiring passionate and motivated bus student operators. In addition to a starting pay of $23.08/hour, DART offers a competitive benefits package including paid training, medical coverage after 30 days, pension plan and 401(k) contributions after 180 days, and opportunities for advancement.

Bus operator applicants with an active Commercial Driver's License (CDL) and passenger endorsement will be eligible to receive a $3,500 bonus. Bus operator applicants without a CDL, but with an active Commercial Learner Permit (CLP), will be eligible to receive a $1,800 bonus.

New Bus Operators who live outside of the Dallas/Fort Worth region (more than 150 miles) will be eligible for a relocation stipend of $1,500, which will be paid after their first pay period.

DART Police and Fare Enforcement Officers

Employing a community oriented policing approach that emphasizes service, courtesy, assistance and conflict resolution, DART Police and Fare Enforcement Officers are responsible for the security and safety of customers and employees across DART's 13 city, 700 square mile service area.

The DART Police Department is offering a signing bonus of $5,000 for new DART Police Officers, and $2,000 for new DART Fare Enforcement Officers.

DART is proud to be an Equal Employment Opportunity Employer, supporting diversity in the workplace. Job seekers can find a list of open positions and upcoming recruiting open house dates at DART.org/careers.
