The Key to Public Safety: Locking Down Your Hiring Process
Description
Law enforcement and correctional officers form the backbone of our public safety system. These jobs are both challenging and demanding, and properly vetting potential candidates during the interview process is critical. Carefully chosen candidates not only protect citizens but also reduce the risk of liability and human resource issues in the future. Speakers will discuss how to structure the interview and candidate search process, the best way to interview for a public safety position, and lessons learned from a human resources perspective.
