Guest guest Posted August 29, 2000 Report Share Posted August 29, 2000 Our department finally posted our jobs in the newspaper recently. Funny it was supposed to have been in all summer and be open recruitment...(someone forgot to tell personnel this though)! According to the captain who was on the interview committee these people have intelligence and backbone and we won't be able to scare them off. Well we started out with 10, went down to 6, and thought we might get 4. Out of the 4 people 2 couldn't pass the background check (1 came from a family of felons!!) 3rd one came to sit along in the comm center wore jeans, and the 4th one showed up in shorts and an oversized turtleneck long sleeved t shirt (they'll hire her she was recommended by one of our captains). Intelligence and back bone...yeah ok!!! It isn't the employees who scare them off it is the work atmosphere that does them in. We hire people on a part time basis and if there isn't any full time openings they get to work any and every shift, guarantee of only 20 hrs a week. Biggest drawback we have is that you have to live in the city limits to be employeed! This is going to be a very long year. I truly don't know if I will make it.
