How does the selection process work?

Applications are thoroughly reviewed and screened by the Human Resources Director. Since these are competitive selection processes, applicants whose backgrounds appear to most closely match the needs of the particular vacancy will be considered. The Human Resources Office contacts candidates selected for testing and/or interview. This process can take from one to four weeks after the closing date. Due to the number of applicants and the limited number of job opportunities, not all applicants proceed in the recruitment process.

How do I find out my application status?

Every person applying for a position is notified as to the status of their application. Notifications are sent to applicants who have not been selected for interview, who are interviewed but not selected and to applicants who are selected.

How does the post selection process work?

All successful applicants must consent to a post-offer physical provided by the City's contract physician. This physical shall include a drug screening and any other necessary screenings required for the position offered.
