EMA / E-911 Job Application Process

After you have completed and have returned your application package to the Human Resources:

• The HR Manager will review it and work with the EMA/E-911 Director to ensure you have filled everything out properly and make sure you are eligible for employment and forward the package to the Director. 
• You will be called by staff at EMA / E-911 to set up an initial testing date and time.
• When you respond for your testing, you will meet with the Administrative Assistant and/or Director and/or a Dispatch Supervisor and you will take a radio test and your typing test (if not already complete).  Following this you will attend a brief interview.  You will also answer a series of questions asked of every applicant at this interview.
• Once the first interview is complete; the Deputy Director and/or Director will check all references, run the criminal background and review the application.  If you are chosen to move on, you will be notified of a 2nd interview.  If you are not chosen to move on, you will receive a letter.
• If chosen for a 2nd interview, this interview will be with a panel made up of the Director and/or Deputy Director and a panel of other Department Heads.  During this interview, you will be asked a series of questions.
• Following 2nd interviews, the Director and Deputy Director will discuss appointment and the Director will make a decision to hire or not hire, based on recommendations from the panel.
• If the Director offers a position with the department, the offer is contingent on your passing a drug screen and any other required testing.
• Once all steps are successfully met; the Director and/or Deputy Director or appointee will communicate your schedule to you and schedule you to meet the Human Resources Director to finish paperwork.
