Good Morning,
Jefferson County Commission Human Resources Department in Birmingham, Alabama is currently recruiting assessors
to assist in our selection procedures for multiple positions. The assessment centers permit individuals to demonstrate their knowledge and competence related to these jobs through structured interviews.
In order to accurately and effectively assess the candidates’ performance in these selection processes, we are
recruiting graduate students who are enrolled in Industrial/Organizational, Human Resource, or
Organizational Behavior Master and/or PhD programs or any individual that has employee selection assessment experience to assist in the final assessment of these candidates. Assessors will receive training regarding the assessment process which includes
how to complete scoring of the candidates.
The success of our process hinges on our ability to recruit highly competent individuals to assist in this assessment.
Although we are unable to provide a stipend to the assessors that we recruit to assist in this process, the assessment does provide several other benefits to individuals who graciously agree to volunteer.
Lastly, flight expenses have been approved for our August Assessment, so we are able to cover the flight to and
from Birmingham, AL. The August Assessment is scheduled for August 22-27th. The registration is currently open, but it will close on August 9, 2021. If you or your students are interested in gaining valuable applied experience in the field of employee
selection by assisting, please feel free to contact me at 205-583-8326 or by email at
[log in to unmask]. Please see the attached flyer for registration information. I have also included the registration link below. Thank you in advance for your assistance with this process.
