Are you ready for your opportunity to shine?

Please note that applications must clearly demonstrate the necessary education, skills and abilities required to meet the minimum qualifications, and only those applicants who appear to have the best qualifications will be invited to continue on in the selection process.

Meeting the minimum qualifications does not guarantee an applicant will be invited to continue on in the applicant process.

Resumes and cover letters are important screening tools and applications not accompanied with this information may be more difficult to assess. Please note that resumes are not accepted in lieu of an official District application. Resumes may be submitted with employment applications; however, do not substitute any part of the application form with the words “SEE RESUME.”

Step 3:
Submit your application to the Human Resources Department at:

Desert Recreation District
45-305 Oasis Street
Indio, CA 92201

You may fax or email your application materials, but if called for an interview, you will be required to provide an originally signed application.

Fax: (760) 347-4660
Email: hr@desertrecreationdistrict.ca.gov

Step 4:
If an applicant has been selected to continue on in the recruitment process, they will be notified by email (if provided on the application) or by phone and will be asked to take a series of Assessment tests. Only applicants that complete the Assessment tests will be considered for continuation in the selection process.

The results of the Assessment tests will be attached to the applicant’s application and forwarded to the Hiring Supervisor for review.

Step 5:
The Supervisor will then conduct an interview with those applicants who have been chosen.
