Hiring Process - Interviews and Testing
Human Resources, Department Designee and/or panel will review all applications for the position after the closing date. Each application is considered. 

Because of the volume of applications the City generally receives, the reviewing process takes time.  Every effort is made to notify applicants selected for an interview as early as possible. Those selected to interview will be notified of the date, time and location of the interview and if any testing will take place.  Those not selected to interview will receive letters.

Thank you for your patience. We appreciate your interest in employment with the City of Oak Harbor.
