Please list all paid work experience, licenses, professional affiliations, classes you have taken, training you have received, applicable volunteer work and any other special qualifications you possess which relate to the position for which you are applying. Part time experience will be prorated accordingly.

Directly contact Human Resources at (916) 405-7190 or e-mail us at HumanResources@yourcsd.com with your changes. If you did not include an e-mail address on your application it is very important that you inform us of any physical address changes. Even though we contact applicants via their e-mail addresses, an applicant's official postal service address is still used for official records. It is important that we have your correct mailing address.

Each job announcement lists the required qualifications. Read the requirements carefully to see how they match up to your education and/or experience. The position may require college course work, a specific amount of experience, a license or certificate or set of knowledge and abilities in a specific area. Based on your knowledge and experience, you should be able to determine whether you meet the requirements of the position. If in doubt, submit your application and Human Resources will determine whether or not you meet the requirements. NOTE: Employment background, academic degrees, licenses, certifications and other credentials are subject to confirmation as part of the appointment process.

Failure to include requested information (including writing "see resume" on the application in area of experience) will result in rejection of your application. Without accurate and complete information, we will not be able to determine whether or not you meet the minimum qualifications for the job.

A supplemental questionnaire consists of questions related to the experience, education, training, knowledge, skills and abilities needed to perform the job. For some vacancies the answers to the supplemental questionnaire may be the initial testing process. Please answer each question completely and concisely. Supplemental questionnaire instructions are outlined in the job announcement if a supplemental questionnaire is required for the recruitment in question.

Conditional job offers are made "pending" a TB test, and may include a DMV driving record, physical examination/questionnaire, background check and/or urine drug screening depending on the position. If you are working when you receive a conditional job offer DO NOT quit your job until you have been instructed to do so. Employment background, academic degrees, licenses, certifications and other credentials are subject to confirmation as part of the appointment process. The District complies with the Immigration Control and Reform Act of 1986. If offered a position, you will be required to present identification and/or work authorization paperwork. Only documents identified in law or regulation are acceptable. After you have been offered and have accepted a position, be sure that you understand when you will begin, where and to whom you will report on the first day, and whether there are any other steps the hiring department would like you to take before starting work. Be sure to get the telephone number of the person who contacts you for hire in case you have further questions.

Our objective is to hire the best person for the job, so competition is keen. If you are not immediately successful in getting a position, you may be considered for other vacancies that occur in the same classification. If you see that particular classification opened for a subsequent recruitment you must reapply. All individuals are encouraged to apply for employment with the Cosumnes Community Services District. The District is an equal opportunity employer. This means that we do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, sex, age,disability or national origin. Please contact the CSD Human Resources office at least five working days before a scheduled interview/examination, if you require reasonable accommodation in the testing process. Try not to be discouraged by the length of time taken in the recruitment, or if you do not get hired the first time around. We know that the hiring process in the public sector seems like a long time; however, we want sufficient time to evaluate everyone fairly and find the best person for the job. The time and effort are worth it. If you are not chosen in your first attempt, try again. Candidate pools are different in each recruitment and as you become more familiar with the process, you will be more at ease with successive efforts. Don't give up!

Applications are accepted on a continuous basis and processed on a predetermined schedule and/or on an as-needed basis. Any persons qualified for the position may apply. These recruitments may close at any time. If you see a position that is designated "Continuous" that you are interested in it is best to apply as soon as possible.
