Job Applications

When local governments need to fill public safety, fire, or other positions, it can be challenging to source a diverse pool of applicants. Especially when you're short on staff, it can be challenging to review applications received via email and track candidate status. With online applications on CityGrows, local governments are able to recruit applicants from a larger geographic area and diversify their applicant pool. Some governments charge an application fee via the CityGrows platform to cover application processing costs.
