How does the Personnel Commission determine if I qualify for this job?
October 09, 2001
Frequently, a Supplemental Experience Statement will be required so that you can more fully explain specific experience or qualifications.
The supplemental statement focuses on the key responsibilities of the position for which you are applying and allows you to elaborate on your previous experience/training in areas of particular relevance to the job. Resumes, letters of reference, certifications, etc., may be included with the application and supplemental experience statement will be evaluated.
Include not only paid work experience, but all other experience which may apply to the job, i.e., volunteer work experience, licenses, professional affiliations, clsses you have taken training you have received and any other special qualifications. Failure to include all information requested could result in the rejection of your application. With accurate and complete information, we will be able to determine whether you meet the minimum qualifcations for the job class.
Since there is usually a large number of applications for each recruitment, the evaluation process can take several days. We realize the wait can be frustrating, but please be patient. We want to give each application the careful consideraiton it deserves.
