How to Apply for a Job with Douglas County:
Applications are accepted only for positions that are advertised. Do not submit a general application for an unknown position; it will not be considered. Every applicant for a job opening with Douglas County must complete an Application for Employment; resumes alone are not acceptable.
Applicants for Public Safety positions will be required to complete a supplementary form designed for that available position, and this form is available only from the Personnel Department.
Applicants must deliver their job applications in person to the Personnel Department; fax copies are not acceptable.
Employment:
New hires, transfers, promotions, demotions, terminations, and disciplinary procedures are all coordinated through the Personnel Department. These procedures are normally initiated by the respective Department head with guidance and administrative support from this Department.

All of the County employees' benefits are administered through the Personnel Department. These include, but are not limited to: medical and dental insurance, Worker's Compensation, unemployment insurance, life insurance, Employee Assistance Plan, payroll direct deposit, service awards, Employee of the Month, and COBRA. Any County employee needing information or assistance in any of these areas should contact the Personnel Department.
Salary Administration:
The Payroll Office of the Finance Department, not the Personnel Department, issues employee paychecks. The Personnel Department does coordinate all processing of salary changes that result from new hires, promotions, demotions, cost-of-living adjustments, merit increases, across-the-board raises and any adjustments to pay brought about by decisions made by the Board of Commissioners. This includes the monitoring of all employee evaluations that may also be used in determining salary changes.

All employee personnel files relative to their work history at Douglas County, are stored within the Personnel Department.
