The City of Spokane has a NEW process for submitting applications for classified City positions. As of May 1, 2015, the City has begun utilizing the NEOGOV system to enable applicants to submit online applications. The City is utilizing this system in order to provide better customer service, allow the City a much broader outreach capability and well to streamline test scheduling and administration.
All recruitments have been transitioned to the NEOGOV-hosted website to post and accept classified job applications online.
To apply for a posted job: Please visit the City's jobs page. Under Classified Positions, applicants should click on the Learn More button for all of the important information relevant to the job posting before clicking on the Apply button to apply for a specific posting.
A job posting is for the purpose of creating eligible registers that are valid for a two-year period.
If you experience problems with the application process please contact NEOGOV customer service at 1.855.524.5627
Implementation is still in process and will include the entry of all Civil Service classification descriptions and information into NEOGOV. Thank you for your patience while we work towards serving you better.
