6 ITEM NO. 1. ACTION: APPROVAL, CREATION, AND PROMULGATION OF THE LIST OF ELIGIBLES RESULTING FROM THE ADMINISTRATIVE CLERK EXAM 7.10 On April 10, 2018, the Housing Authority conducted an exam for the Administrative Clerk classification. Ten candidates were invited to the interview. The exam process included an interview panel and a written exercise. The recommended eligibility list will be distributed at your meeting. The names on the list are those who achieved an overall passing score. ITEM NO. 2. INFORMATION: PERSONNEL COMMITTEE ADVISED OF THE INTENT TO LIMIT THE NUMBER OF QUALIFIED APPLICANTS WHO GAIN ENTRY INTO THE HOUSING PROGRAMS MANAGER EXAM 6.10 Staff anticipates receiving more applicants who meet the minimum qualifications for the Housing Programs Manager exam than we are able to test. Personnel Rule 6.10 provides that staff should advise the Personnel Committee whenever the number of qualified applicants who gain entry to an exam is limited. Staff will devise screening criteria and use a rating system to make sure that the most qualified applicants gain entry to these exams. The recruiting announcements will advise applicants of this process. No Personnel Committee action is required for this item. Staff meant to include this item on last month s agenda when your Committee authorized recruitment for the position but inadvertently omitted it. 6
