Our Process
Our Process
We are glad you are interested in joining the City of Brownsville! The first step to join our team is to submit an online application through our Careers Website (careers.brownsvilletx.gov/jobs/search). You may be wondering what the next steps are once you have submitted an application. We will give a brief explanation in the following paragraphs.
Firstly, to ensure a seamless process, please ensure your application is submitted to the fullest with your most updated contact information. Please turn on your voicemail option, if possible, in the case that we need to get ahold of you. Although not all applications require it, it is always helpful to upload a resume to your application for additional information. Always be on the lookout for emails, phone calls, or even texts.
Interview Process
If your application is selected for interview, you will be contacted via phone call or email to schedule your interview appointment. If your application were to not be selected, you will also receive communication of the dismissal for your awareness.
Once your interview is scheduled, make sure to keep in mind the date, time, and location of the interview. Try to get there at least fifteen minutes early to account for traffic or parking setbacks. If you are unsure of where you can park for your interview, you can contact to inquire. The interview panel should already have your application and (if submitted) your resume on file, but feel free to bring copies if you wish to. If possible, please attend the interview in business casual attire. The time of the interview varies by position so please be mindful of the time you reserve for your appointment. After you have interviewed, be on the lookout for any phone calls or emails if you are selected for any next steps. The department will review their interview notes for all candidates. This process could take from a few days to two weeks. You will receive communication regardless of if you are selected or not.
Post Interview
If you are selected for the position you applied for, a Human Resources Business Partner will be in contact with you to start the next process.
As there are several items needed to get cleared before you can start as an employee of the City of Brownsville, please keep in mind that the time from your selection notification to your first day of employment may vary as the process is completed. If you have any questions during this process, please contact your Human Resources Business Partner.
Good luck!
