and everyone that I asked about this problem. They told me, we are having the same problem in our city. Okay, I think the only way you are going to get them, because I have asked fifteen guys about the test and about the job, and everyone of them had felonies, or they didn't pass the test, and this is the God's truth. Now, I think we are down to the point where the city is going to have to bellie -up, hire a recruiter, go out there and one at a time. Do what you got to do to get it done. I don't know no other way of doing it. We can sit here and talk all day, but it is not going to happen because I have been working hard for six months to bring them here. They took the test, they didn't pass it. The ones that told me they were going to take the test only one out of 12 took the test, and this is from the bottom of my heart. I know we need minorities. We need minorities at McCuistion. We need minorities everywhere in Paris, but what the rest of the other companies are doing, they are recruiting, and they are telling them exactly what the want, and those people get busy.

They bring these people in, let them look at what we have to offer, and they are already certified. They want to move, and they bring them all in here, and that is my suggestion. I have done everything else that I know. McEwin, O.B. Highway 79, Route 1, Box 107, 1 just wanted to drop in a minutes and listen.

Most times whenever we get an application for a job for the city department, it has been taken. Why do we wait so long, why do we be the last one to get the application. Whenever we pin up one we have young boys that have left here from our church they fill them out and sent them in, they never did call them to come take the test, no nothing, we never know. That is what I want to know, so finally, you know, a lot of time when they do get it to go find out about it, the job was posted last week, and it has been taken. Malone There is a designation to be made between the Civil Service and the non -Civil Service. For the non -Civil Service, the process is to have your name at Texas Workforce Commission on record as applying for a job, and then, they do whatever skills assessment that they do,
