EMPLOYMENT INFORMATION SHEET

The purpose of this "Information Sheet" is to inform you of employment procedures within Comal County and the function of Comal County Human Resources (HR). The function of the HR department is to screen the applicants, assure that minimum job qualifications are met, and forward the applications of qualified applicants to the Department where the vacancy exists.

Applications are accepted only for current positions available. An ORIGINAL employment application MUST be submitted for each vacancy.  However, an applicant may apply for more than one position with the same application on the date the application is originally submitted. The application must be completed in ink or typed.  Applications are available at the Comal County Human Resources Department (Old Courthouse) or may be downloaded from this web site.  PLEASE READ THROUGH THIS INFORMATION SHEET ENTIRELY BEFORE ACCESSING THE LINK.  Those applicants requiring reasonable accommodation to the application or interview process should call (830) 620-5510 during normal office hours to request it.

Your application for employment with Comal County is our only source of information about you. The application MUST be completed entirely and all questions must be answered. If a question does not apply indicate "N/A" for non-applicable. Any skills, education, licenses, etc., required for the position must also be included on the application to assure that the applicant meets the minimum qualifications. You may submit a resume or additional information to attach to your application that includes your qualifications for the position, but do not put "see attached resume".  You must fill in the application as instructed -- the resume is merely an attachment.  Your application will be reviewed for completion, and questions will be asked to clarify areas to help determine if you meet the minimum qualifications for a particular position. Finally, it is our policy to confirm all information contained in the application.  As such, criminal history checks may be performed on any position, even if it is not so stated in the job announcement.  Failure to provide or misrepresent information on the application could result in the application not being referred to the Department or lead to immediate termination of the hiring process.

If any position requires a typing test, it will be administered by the Texas Workforce Commission prior to submitting an application for a position that requires typing. The typing test is given only when a vacancy exists and is valid for one (1) year. If we have a record of a previous typing test score, which meets the typing requirements for a position, this score may be used. 

If any position requires a certificate, license, including a driver's license, proof of insurance, resume, etc., then copies of these documents must be submitted with the application or by the closing date of the position. Failure to provide this information will result in the application not being referred to the Department.  At the end of the closing date for the position, all the applications of qualified individuals will be forwarded to the Department.

The Department Official will then review the applications submitted, contact the persons they want to interview and will then make the final selection in hiring. You will be required to take a pre-employment drug screen test as part of the employment conditions for Comal County.  Also, if you are required to take a medical exam (physical or psychological) as part of the conditional offer for the position you are applying for, it will be done at County expense prior to being hired.
           

Any position on this announcement may be closed or extended at any particular time during the advertisement period, at the discretion of the Elected Officials or Department Heads of Comal County.
