Administrative & Clerical Staffing in Round Rock, TX
How Lingo's 37 local placements translate into a real hourly pay range and a practical staffing plan for admin and clerical roles here.
Across 37 admin and clerical placements in Round Rock, actual pay ran from $12 at the 10th percentile to $16.40 at the 90th, with a $15 median — a tight band that leaves little room to underpay and still compete. Sitting near the floor will eventually fill a seat, but in this market it usually means longer time-to-fill and more turnover once someone lands a better offer.
What $12–$16.40 an Hour Actually Buys
Based on 37 placements Lingo has made for this role in Round Rock, pay clusters tightly: $12 at the bottom, $15 at the median, $16.40 at the top. That narrow spread means the market isn't rewarding outlier pay so much as punishing anyone posting near the floor. A rate near or above the $15 median is what actually gets you a candidate who shows up reliably instead of one who's still job-hunting after your start date.
Why This Role Is Hard to Fill Here
Round Rock's labor pool is being pulled toward the semiconductor, EV, and electronics plants expanding across Central Texas, and those employers need the same detail-oriented, reliable workers that admin and clerical desks need. A candidate who passes a background check and shows up on time often has more than one offer before a hiring manager gets to the interview. New facilities keep opening faster than the local workforce grows, so this isn't a seasonal squeeze — it's ongoing.
How Lingo Fills These Seats
Lingo has placed 37 people into administrative and clerical roles in this market, so the pay figures above come from what employers here actually paid, not a survey. We recruit, screen, and run payroll for temp, temp-to-hire, and payrolling arrangements — cover a short-term gap, evaluate someone before adding them to headcount, or move an existing worker onto our payroll without changing who's sitting at the desk.
The 8-Hour Guarantee
If an associate isn’t working out in their first 8 hours, you are not billed for that time — we still pay them, and we put a replacement on your next shift.
Questions Round Rock, TX employers ask about staffing administrative and clerical staff
What's the right hourly rate for an admin or clerical hire in Round Rock?
Across 37 local placements, pay ran from $12 at the 10th percentile to $16.40 at the 90th, with a $15 median. If you need to fill the seat quickly with a solid candidate, price at or above the median rather than the floor.
Why is this role harder to fill in Round Rock than the pay range suggests?
The same reliable, detail-oriented workers admin and clerical roles need are also being recruited by the semiconductor, EV, and electronics plants growing in this market. Strong candidates frequently field multiple offers before a hiring manager can even schedule a call.
Does Lingo only provide temporary workers, or can this lead to a direct hire?
Lingo offers temp, temp-to-hire, and payrolling for admin and clerical roles, and handles recruiting, screening, and payroll for all three. You decide whether a placement stays temporary, converts to your headcount, or moves onto our payroll while staying in the same seat.
