Human Resources
The City uses NeoGov to manage its personnel recruitments. Advertising of the City’s open
positions has been done through venues such as CalOpps, Western Cities, JobsAvailable,
CSMFO, or through other professional organizations in the past. The City’s website is a primary
place to advertise its job openings. Human Resources teammates recently tried using LinkedIn
Job Ads to increase awareness of its job openings and reach more qualified applicants, and
found it to be expensive and a lower return on investment than other options. The City also
sends out “all-staff” email announcements when there are new job listings so that teammates
can leverage their personal networks.
As with many City websites, webpages related to jobs in the City (especially Employment
Center, Human Resources, Job Opportunities) are all highly popular. Documents and other
information that the public may desire to view are posted on the City’s website. This includes
items such as job descriptions, salary schedules, and memoranda of understanding. The City
also uses a short, memorable URL redirect o hat redirects
to the Employment Center webpage and offers an “Employment Opportunities” button in its
footer that links to the same webpage.
Information Services (IS)
The City has empowered teammates to create and edit their own webpages and each
Department should have at least an informal review process, as well as a designated teammate
in charge of website updates. CivicPlus provided the City with a “Website Content Best
Practices Guide” to help teammates create and present website content in a cohesive format.
There is no formal Website Governance Policy for the City, but IS will remove user access to
email, the website, etc. when Departments notify them of personnel changes. Tripepi Smith
noted that this does introduce a human error risk, wherein a Department could forget/fail to
notify IT, allowing former personnel to still have access to the City’s business and
communication systems. However, this risk will be mitigated by the upcoming implementation
of a form that will be used for teammates on-boarding and exiting the city. This risk is also a
