Hire the old school way.

Old School Hire is an online platform for local individuals to find jobs in their neighborhood. Our only purpose is to connect someone who needs work done with someone who wants to do work. We're also free.

What makes us different?

Old School Hire is designed to connect job posters with local individuals based on proximity. Our goal is to bridge the gap between those who prefer hiring within their neighborhoods and local individuals seeking to earn extra income and build their clientele. We don’t provide neighborhood news or 9 to 5 jobs, nor do we promise professional work. Instead, we foster community engagement by offering motivated neighbors opportunities to find and complete jobs effectively.

Our Story

Hello and welcome to Old School Hire! My name is Tres Jass, and I am passionate about making a positive impact in our community. At just 17 years of age, I was driven by a shared commitment to helping my neighbors in San Antonio, Texas, thrive and receive the help they need. Now, as a student at the University of Houston, my dedication to this mission continues to grow.

Our journey began with a simple idea: making a difficult job search easier for everyone. As a teenager, I found most 9-5 jobs boring, underpaid, and time-consuming. So, I took an alternative route and worked jobs around my neighborhood—power washing, lawn mowing, and other miscellaneous day jobs. Through these experiences, I identified the challenges of seeking opportunities, especially when you’re just starting out, but also the growth that comes with trying new things and putting your skills to use.

That’s why I decided to create Old School Hire, a platform that connects local individuals seeking meaningful job opportunities right here in our community.
