If you wish to identify yourself as a qualified person with a disability under the Americans with Disabilities Act and would like to request an accommodation, please address the request to the Department of Human Resources prior to the recruitment close date. You may request an accommodation during the online application process. OTHER INFORMATION TESTING AND SELECTION PROCESS OUR APPLICATION PROCESS HAS CHANGED. PLEASE REVIEW COMPLETELY. Applicants must take the REACT written/video exam and transfer their scores to Clackamas County by the close date of the recruitment on May 30, 2023. Testing is available through the National Testing Network (NTN) and can be completed online at home as well as several locations in and out of the state. Click here to schedule REACT testing (or transfer a score). The passing score for REACT is 65 for each section, including video, reading and count sections. Note: We strongly encourage candidates to complete the Work Attitude Questionnaire available after the REACT test has been completed. Completion of the questionnaire is requested by NTN, but is not required by the Clackamas County Sheriff's Office and will not be used in the testing evaluation at this time. STEP 1: Pass/Fail Minimum Qualifications and REACT Testing Applicants must meet minimum qualifications and pass the REACT written/video testing (passing score is 65 in every section) and transfer their test scores to the Clackamas County Sheriff's Office by the close of the recruitment (May 30, 2023). STEP 2: Statement of Personal History & Jail Tour All applicants who meet the minimum qualifications and pass REACT testing MUST submit a Statement of Personal History (SPH). The SPH deadline is June 12, 2023. You will be contacted by the Department of Human Resources after Step 1 and given the instructions on how to complete the SPH document. Additionally, you must go through a jail tour at our facility . Applicants will be scheduled in groups of 5-10 over several dates between June 1st and June 12th. You will be provided a schedule to choose from. STEP 3: Department ("in- house") interview, and other post-offer tests Eligible candidates who successfully pass Steps 1 - 2 may be invited to a department ("in- house") interview based on hiring needs. Department interviews will take place any time after the date of June 19, 2023. If a conditional offer is made, candidates must also pass a post-offer job-related physical and psychological evaluation and drug testing for the use of prohibited drugs. BACKGROUND INVESTIGATION: At any time during the application process applicants may have their background packet activated and assigned to a background investigator. PLEASE NOTE: When the Sheriff's Office directs, a background investigator will contact applicants to schedule an INITIAL INTERVIEW. The INITIAL INTERVIEW will include a meeting with a background investigator to have your photo taken, review the SPH and provide instructions on what documents need to be ordered. Background investigations may run concurrently with other testing processes. Background investigations are comprehensive, therefore they can average six (6) to eight (8) weeks to complete. Delays in processing your background investigation may be caused by not completing all entries, not submitting required documents, or references not responding to an investigator's inquiries. If at any time during the hiring process it is determined by the Sheriff's Office that the candidate does not pass the background investigation the candidate will be notified and the application will be inactivated. This may occur prior to, during, or after any of the testing phases and/or placement on the eligibility register. RECRUITING QUESTIONS?

The Center for Election Science
Denver, CO, USA
Chief Executive Officer Remote, based in the United States Founded in 2011, The Center for Election Science (CES) is a national, nonpartisan nonprofit organization focused on voting reform. CES brings better elections to people across the country through research, advocacy, and reform, with an emphasis on Approval Voting. Under Approval Voting, voters select all the candidates that they support - voters are not limited to just one choice. Approval Voting eliminates the problem of vote splitting that arises under the current predominant “Choose One” voting system. There are no complex runoffs, and Approval Voting costs virtually nothing to implement. Among similarly aligned candidates, Approval Voting promotes a healthy atmosphere of inclusion and cooperation rather than pitting similar candidates against each other (as Choose One voting does). Approval Voting is simple to understand, and it results in clear outcomes for candidates and voters alike. Implemented recently in St. Louis, Missouri, and Fargo, North Dakota, Approval Voting accurately measures voters' level of support for candidates in a way that Choose One Voting does not. Approval Voting allows any number of diverse candidates to run, while still giving every candidate a precise measure of their true support among voters. The next CES CEO will arrive at an exciting and transformational time in the organization’s growth. CES is poised to transition from an educational organization that initiates isolated campaigns TO a national advocacy and technical assistance entity seeking and pursuing national impact. CES seeks to be nationwide. CES seeks to have Approval Voting in every state. Reporting to the Board of Directors, the CEO leads the vision, strategy, and growth of The Center for Election Science and serves as the chief public representative of the organization. The CEO is responsible for providing strategic leadership for CES by working with the Board of Directors and other staff leaders to establish long-range strategic goals, policies, and plans. The CEO has the ultimate responsibility for ensuring that the strategic growth objectives of the organization are effectively achieved. The CEO both leads and works collaboratively with staff and coalition partners nationwide to pursue CES’ mission of educating, advocating for, establishing, and growing the use of Approval Voting. The next CEO of The Center for Election Science will have a deep-seated commitment to advocacy and experience in driving growth and impact. The Center for Election Science’s purpose and vision should excite and compel this individual. Candidates for the position must bring a sense of creativity, innovation, and a sense of collaboration with communities to the role. The successful candidate will have strong public policy and analytical acumen and will bring demonstrated skills in advocacy, government relations, and building support for a legislative/policy agenda. Given the unique challenges of the field, the next CEO must be equipped to lead and drive change at both local and national levels. The salary range for this position will be between $160,000 to $200,000 and will be commensurable with experience. The Center for Election Science offers a generous and comprehensive benefits package, including but not limited to Paid Time Off with 21 days annual required minimum, flexible hours, group health, dental and vision insurance, continuing education allotment, as well as a retirement plan. To apply, please submit a current resume and letter of introduction to Kittleman & Associates, LLC at https://apptrkr.com/4503621. For best consideration, applications should be received by October 4th, 2023. For more information about the Center for Election Science, visit https://electionscience.org/.
