Latest on County Vacancies

HR Director Crystal Dadura sent commissioners the above chart late this week.  It represents the current snapshot of where we are with staffing.

Slow incremental progress is being made  in some departments when previous vacancy chart from June is compared, (e.g. corrections vacancy percentage down slightly, overall vacancies down by 37 from 500 last month, public safety openings down to 70 total from 80 last month) however we are still looking at 463 openings throughout the county as of the end of this week.

We've still got a lot of work to do-- but we are making slow, steady progress and hiring more staff.

What's the State of our Current County Staffing Initiatives?

We are making some good progress on hiring but we have much work to do on filling our massive number of vacancies.

County HR Director Crystal Dadura sent us the county's most recent vacancy report earlier this week.  The summary snapshot is above, the full report listing all the jobs that need to be filled can be found here.

Administrator Wes Moreno discusses some of the strategies we are employing to fill the vacancies--to include our hiring fair this month on the 23rd all day at the civic center--beginning at minute 6:00 of this video.
