E1 MEMORANDUM TO: Police Civil Service Commission FROM: Terrie Rameaux, Human Resource Coordinator/Staff Liaison DATE: October 25, 2016 SUBJECT: Review and Accept Exam Results for Police Officer, Establish and Certify Police Officer Eligibility List Introduction/Background In accordance with the Police Civil Service Rules and Regulations, Section 10(b), Police Chief Paul Schnell is requesting that the Commission review the attached exam results from the recent recruiting process for police officer and accept the results, then establish and certify the attached eligibility list. Discussion In August 2016, the City initiated an external recruitment process as was approved at the April 22, 2016 meeting. The process entailed four Phases: Phase One – Eligibility Determination and Supplemental Questions Phase Two – Three structured panel interviews Phase Three – Cooper Institute Fitness Test Phase Four – Chief’s interview and Timed Writing Assessment; candidates must also complete the online Personnel Evaluation Profile (PEP). The City currently utilizes NeoGov, a public sector online HR recruitment software system. For this police officer recruitment process, there were 1,344 hits/views on this job posting; 135 online applications received; 65 of the 135 candidates returned their supplemental questions as part of Phase One. The top 25 based on the combined scoring of Phase One proceeded on to Phase Two; 4 candidates withdrew from the process, 1 was not POST eligible by September 30, 2016, as stipulated in the posting; 4 candidates were no-shows for their interviews; 1 candidate did not pass Phase Three—fitness test. Fifteen candidates proceeded on to Phase Four—the Chief’s interview and timed writing assessment. These 15 candidates are in the process of completing the last component of Phase Four—the Personnel Evaluation Profile (PEP). The PEP is being utilized as an additional tool in the backgrounding process. Budget Impact None Recommendation Staff is recommending the Commission: 1) review and accept the exam results for police officer; 2) establish and certify the eligibility list for police officer.
