Rolling Meadows sets May window for candidate interviews as eligibility list nears expiration
Summary
The board discussed that the Police Department eligibility list expires in May and suggested reserving May 19–21 for interviews; candidates will need a valid POWER Test Card before ride-alongs.
Commissioners said the Police Department's eligibility list is due to expire in May and tied the timeline for any vendor change to that expiration. Chairman Tom Callard said that if the City Attorney provides approved language by March, the Commission could begin the new process in May and suggested reserving May 19–21 for potential interviews.
The board also discussed screening tools and procedures. One proposed step is an online, one-way interview to reduce the pool to the strongest candidates before Commission interviews. Commissioners said candidates will be required to obtain a valid POWER Test Card before participating in a ride-along with the department. The board emphasized maintaining an active eligibility list to avoid hiring gaps.
