We will be testing on a regular basis at locations throughout the state. In essence, your testing efforts will be taken on the road across the state and on a frequent basis. We will initially test monthly until we determine whether more or less frequent testing dates best serves our agencies and our applicants. The eligibility list itself does not expire. Individual candidate names on the list expire after 12 months on your eligibility list or 15 months from the date that we certify them, which ever occurs first.
Applicants decide what subscribing agency or agencies that they are applying to.
One applicant could be testing solely for your agency, yet another could be testing for your agency plus a number of others. As soon as we have verified and certified the scores and are certain that all records are accurate, we will send your agency the biographical data and scores of the applicants that not only want to work for your agency, but that have passed the written and physical agility tests. Applicants have the opportunity to view information about each subscribing agency, including department information, community information, salary and benefit information, etc., and any special requirements your agency may have. We will advertise in most major newspapers around the state. In addition, we will frequently participate in job fairs, distribute flyers to colleges and military bases, and pursue other marketing opportunities.
