Careers:

You applied! Once the recruitment closes, applications move into the review process. Timing may vary depending on the position and number of applications received.

Your application is reviewed to determine whether you meet the minimum qualifications listed in the job posting. We can only consider the education and experience documented in your application, so be sure your work history clearly demonstrates how you meet the qualifications for the position.

Qualified candidates may be invited via email to participate in an interview or other selection process. This is your opportunity to share your experience, skills, and what you could bring to the position.

Candidates who successfully complete the selection process may be placed on an eligibility list for consideration. Hiring departments evaluate eligible candidates and determine who will move forward in the hiring process.

If you are selected, you will receive a conditional job offer outlining the position and next steps. Once you accept the offer, you will move forward with the required pre-employment process.

After accepting a conditional job offer, you will complete any pre-employment requirements for the position. Requirements vary by job and may include a background check, reference checks, medical examination, drug screening, or other position-specific requirements.

Certain public safety positions, including Deputy Sheriff and Correctional Officer, follow a more extensive background process that is completed before a job offer is made.

Once all required pre-employment steps are successfully completed, your hiring process will be finalized and you'll receive information about your start date and joining the Inyo County team.
