I've been working for the County for a long time. Why do I have to fill out an application?

An application is required for each Washoe County job opening and is screened based on the minimum qualifications for the applicable job classification. In addition, it is likely that you may have acquired additional skills, experience and education since you originally applied which should be considered during the recruitment and selection process. The Department of Human Resources highly recommends updating your application to demonstrate you meet the minimum qualifications each time you apply for a Washoe County job opening. Finally, completing an online application ensures accurate applicant tracking information for every position.
