There are several factors impacting this reductÍon in applications including the option of remote testing which is currently offered by most of our neighboríng agencies. Remote testing efforts employed by neighborÍng agencies includes the use of Skype oral board intervìews and phone or Skype interviews for background ínterviews among others. The Kent Police Department recently transitioned from oral board interviews to computer based Assessments (the WPT-R and MPA offered by Wonderlic Inc.) to determine placement on the Eligibility List. This testing format can be proctored remotely by various means. Most out of state Lateral Police Officer candidates are coming from agencies where the expense for travel (flight, lodging, transportation) and the availability of time off severely hinder the candidates' availability for the initial stages of the testing process. These candidates express reluctance to consider an agency where the investment of travel expenses and time off outweigh their motivation to test. They opt instead for more accommodating hiring processes with other agencies, thereby minimizing the financial burden and investment in time they would incur testing with employers such as the City of Kent. Memorandum April 19,2017 Page; 2 In an effort to accommodate our out of state Lateral Police Officer candidates and increase the number of qualified applicants, we have reviewed the Civil Service Rules and Regulations and have consulted with our Legal Department to explore offering remote candidate testing, Upon reviewing the Civil Service rules, our Legal Department approved the remoted testing of candidates and requested that we notify the Commission of our intent. The practice of Remote Testing will, at this time, be limited to Lateral Police Officer candidates. Candidates who successfully complete the Assessments will still be required to submit to a background investigation, polygraph examination, medical evaluation, psychological evaluation, and Chief's interview. They will be required to travel to Kent for in-person interviews.
