Human Resources

Clerical Testing
Clerical testing is given only when clerical positions are available and done at the time of application. 

Testing must be completed by 4:30 p.m. each day and by the job closing date.  Applicants are given two opportunities to pass the typing test during the posting period.  Only one test per day is permitted.  Therefore, applicants waiting until the last day of the posting will have only one opportunity to take a typing test.   A thirty day waiting period is required between each two tests taken.  

Persons with a disability requiring reasonable accommodations should call (407) 246-2235 to schedule tests.

Pre-Employment Testing, Background Checks and Polygraphs
Applicants selected for employment will be required to successfully pass a criminal background check and a physical examination, which includes drug screening.  

Final candidates for all Police Department positions, fire dispatch positions, security officers, recreation facility supervisors, cash-handling positions, and other positions determined by the City of Orlando will be polygraphed.
