Summary

Howard County staff told the Inspector General Advisory Board that 10 candidates were selected for first-round interviews beginning Sept. 3, with two interviews per evening at 6:30 and 7:30 p.m.; panels should include at least three members and WebEx access will be provided for non-panelists.

The Howard County Inspector General Advisory Board on Aug. 28 set interview dates for 10 candidates selected for first-round interviews for the county inspector general position.

Isaiah Anderson, staff coordinating the hiring process, said the board reached out to all 10 candidates and confirmed their continued interest. “The first will begin on September 3,” Anderson said, adding the board plans two interviews per evening — at 6:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. — to allow time between sessions.

Anderson asked members who are on interview panels to accept or decline meeting invitations promptly so the office can ensure panels meet the minimum participation threshold. “We just need to hit at least 3,” he said, referring to the minimum number of panelists desired for each interview. He also said staff will provide a WebEx link for members who are not on the panel and will distribute candidate documentation to panel members.

Tom, a staff coordinator, said he will work with Anderson to confirm panel rosters and logistics. The chair thanked Human Resources staff—Christy Johnson Ford and Andrew Bennett—for putting candidate packages together and assisting with the process.

Board members were asked to respond quickly to scheduling invitations to avoid conflicts; Anderson said some members had not yet accepted and staff would follow up. The interviews are scheduled across consecutive evenings (Sept. 3–4 and Sept. 8–10) with two candidates per night.
