Council hears proposed schedule: 30-day advertising window, virtual interviews in September
Summary
The consultant recommended a 30-day advertising period followed by 2–3 weeks of stakeholder interviews and proposed virtual interviews on Sept. 9–10, giving the city time to vet finalists and complete background checks before deliberation.
The Presenter told the council the firm usually leaves a recruitment advertisement open for 30 days to attract a broad candidate pool, noting that national sites and targeted outreach increase visibility. “I definitely need to have it open for for a month, in advertising,” the Presenter said.
He recommended 2–3 weeks for stakeholder interviews after the ad period and suggested the draft schedule in the proposal targeted selection of candidates for virtual interviews on Sept. 9 and a special council meeting for virtual interviews on Sept. 10. The Presenter also said the firm could try to expedite stakeholder interviews by using virtual rather than in‑person meetings if the council wanted a shorter timeline.
