Q. How do I know if I qualify for a position?
Answer: The minimum qualifications which you must meet in order to qualify for a position can be found on the Job Bulletin. The Job Bulletin is available at the Personnel Commission office or online under Job Descriptions. Since the Personnel Commission staff can only screen based on the information provided by the applicant, it is very important that you fill out your application completely. It is very important that you document your educational background and work history on the application. You may submit a resume in addition to your application, but you will be disqualified if your application is incomplete. Do not attach a resume and state “see resume” in lieu of completing the application process in its entirety.
Q. How do I submit proof for positions that require a special license or certification (i.e. Driver’s License, Typing Certificate, First Aid, CPR, etc.)?
Answer: You must provide the Personnel Commission office located at 15959 E. Gale Ave. in the City of Industry with documentation by 4:30 p.m. on the closing date. You may submit the documents in person or via fax to (626) 333-7416. If faxing documents, please make sure the name you applied with and the position for which you have applied are clearly noted on the fax. You may also attach the documents to your online application.

Q. How will the Personnel Commission communicate with me?
Answer: Communication is either through email or standard postal mail. During the application process, you will be asked to enter your contact information such as your address, telephone number, and email address. It is important to keep all of this information up-to-date. If you need to update your contact information, please notify us by calling (626) 933-3920.

Q. If I want to apply for more than one job, do I need to fill out more than one application?
Answer: Yes. You must fill out and submit a different application for each job for which you wish to apply. You must completely fill out each application every time you wish to apply for a job. For example, if you wish to apply for Custodian I and Custodian II, you will need to complete two separate applications. Likewise, if you apply for Custodian I but are not offered a position and wish to apply for Custodian I again the next time the recruitment opens, you must completely fill out a new application. This process is the same for both current employees of the district and outside applicants.
We strongly recommend that candidates complete an online profile which can be set up from our Job Seekers page. If you set up an online profile, you will not need to re-enter your educational background and work experience for future applications. If you complete a paper application, you will have to repeat this process for each position you apply for.

After you have submitted a Job Interest Card, an email will be sent to you when we open the recruitment so you can apply for the position.
