Board approves using recruiter to fill city clerk position
Summary
The board approved contracting a recruiting firm to find candidates for an open city clerk position, asking the firm to prescreen candidates, send recommended resumes to the mayor and schedule interviews; hourly pay ranges and training needs were discussed.
The Ste. Genevieve City Board approved contracting with a recruiting firm to locate and prescreen candidates for a city clerk vacancy.
Staff told the board the firm identified three candidates who match the job description and that the city has funds available to pay the recruitment fee. The board discussed entry-level and experienced pay bands, with staff noting entry-level hires commonly at $15–$16 an hour and more experienced candidates in the $18–$19 range.
Board members directed the firm to send recommended resumes to the mayor and to coordinate interviews. A motion to proceed was made, seconded and approved by voice vote.
Next steps: the mayor will receive candidate resumes and the board will coordinate interviews and hiring according to the usual process.
