The Recruitment Process
The recruitment process will consist of of the following steps: Step 1: Application: When you submit your application, please provide thorough and complete answers to the essay questions listed on the application. We use these supplemental questions, instead of a resume or cover letter, to get to know you. The answers you provide will be evaluated in the interview process. Therefore, please take your time to provide a thorough answer.
Step 2: Typing Test: Those who pass the minimum qualifications mentioned above will be emailed a link and instructions to complete a typing test. We use an online program, Typing Test Pro, which sends us the results automatically. To pass, you must have a typing speed of at least 40 words per minute with 90% accuracy. You will get four (4) chances to pass.
Step 3: CritiCall Test: Those who pass the typing test will be emailed a testing link and instructions to complete the CritiCall test. This is an online test where we look for underlying skills and abilities important for the work. The test involves components such as multitasking, memorization, and reading comprehension. Step 4: Eligible List Survey: Those who pass the CritiCall test will be placed on an equally ranked Eligible List. You will receive a link to a survey where you will be able to indicate interest in one of two acadmies. While we will do our best to accommodate everyone's first choice, please note that selection will be determined through a random lottery process if interest exceeds available interview spots. This process is not based on qualifications or test scores, ensuring that every candidate has an equal chance of being selected for their preferred academy. Please see below for tentative interview timelines for each academy. You will be notified of the academy selection lottery outcome after the survey deadline. Step 5: Pass/Fail Oral Interviews: Everyone who passes the CritiCall test will have a chance to meet with an interview panel which includes an emergency communications dispatcher and a supervisor. We conduct two (2) rounds of interviews. During the first interview, questions will be provided 30 minutes prior to the interview itself. Most people who interview for this job have no experience with 9-1-1. The second interview is an opportunity for our training manager and training supervisor to learn more about you. Step 6: Conditional Offer & Background Checks: All candidates who pass first and second interviews are given a conditional offer. The final offer of employment is based on passing a background/reference check, a psychological assessment, a drug screening and vision/hearing tests. Recruitment Activity Schedule

The Equity and Inclusion Manager for the City of Portland Vibrant Communities Service Area, including Portland Parks & Recreation (PP&R), Portland Children's Levy, and Office of Arts & Culture is a vital member of the bureau's executive leadership team, currently reporting directly to the PP&R Director and will transition to reporting to the Chief of Staff for the Vibrant Communities Deputy City Administrator in June. This position holds a prominent role within both internal operations and external interactions, exercising significant discretion in executing responsibilities.
Primarily, the Equity and Inclusion Manager leads a dedicated equity and inclusion team, focusing on underserved communities, specifically Black people, Indigenous people, people of color, immigrants, and refugees, LGBT2SQIA+ people, people with disabilities, youth, older adults, and people living with low incomes. This involves coordinating various internal and external committees and workgroups, such as PP&R's Diversity and Equity Committee, City affinity groups, and supporting the development and implementation of strategic plans and policies. Supporting the implementation of PP&R's strategic plan, Healthy Parks, Healthy Portland, is an example of this work. Visit here for more information on Healthy Parks, Healthy Portland: https://www.portland.gov/parks/healthy-parks.
Drawing on deep knowledge of the City's mission and operational intricacies, the incumbent will develop and manage initiatives aligned with equity, diversity, accessibility, and inclusion principles, furthering the City's strategic equity and inclusion objectives. This role collaborates extensively with internal and external stakeholders to ensure alignment with City goals. City of Portland Charter Transition On, Nov. 1, 2023, Portland City Council approved an organizational chart to unify bureaus, programs, and services under the leadership of a city administrator. Organized by service areas, the new model establishes key leadership positions and realigns core services to operate efficiently and effectively. The new organizational structure features a city administrator's office and executive leadership team: six deputy city administrators, an equity officer, a sustainability officer, and an assistant city administrator. Together, these people will be responsible for leading and coordinating operations across the City to improve delivery of internal and external services, developing, and implementing a shared citywide vision and priorities, and continuing to grow a shared culture across the organization. The city administrator's office will also include the Office of Equity and Human Rights, Communications, Community and Civic Life, Council Operations, the Office of Government Relations, and Portland Solutions, to provide greater citywide coordination of policies and programming. The organizational chart includes six service areas, each led by a deputy city administrator: Budget and Finance; City Operations; Community and Economic Development; Public Safety; Public Works; and Vibrant Communities. Vibrant Communities Service Area will include Portland Parks & Recreation, Portland Children's Levy, and Office of Arts & Culture. What you'll get to do:
• Ensure Citywide, service area and bureau-specific equity and anti-racism lenses are applied towards the evaluation, development and performance management of strategic plans, policies, processes, practices, and communications. • Collaborate with City and service area program managers and executive leadership. • Manage and lead the equity and inclusion team. • Perform complex and responsible administrative, financial, and statistical analysis in support of the equity and inclusion program. • Provide sound, expert, data-driven and professional recommendations. • Work closely with the Office of Equity and Human Rights, and other city internal stakeholders to align the citywide goals and overall approach to equity and inclusion. • Lead the diversity, equity, and inclusion change management framework.
