Merit Appeals Board <br />March 12, 2024 <br />CHR. CABANAS: And I see their beautiful postings where they feature County employees in <br />their postings and encouraging persons to apply for their vacancies. Is that in conjunction with <br />your department or are they just doing it on their own? <br />MS. TOKIHIRO: They're doing that on their own. <br />CHR. CABANAS: Okay. <br />MS. TOKIHIRO: So, the Prosecutor's Office—yes—and the Police Department, as you <br />mentioned, they take—so information is posted by HR through our social media, through <br />Facebook, InstagramI believe. And then the Prosecutor's Office does their own. And so, we <br />re -post their information—and other departments are re -posting information that comes from HR <br />social media as well. <br />So, like, I know Parks and Recreation will take our HR post and then re -post them on their own <br />social media. So, a lot of departments have they own social media to do outreach of various <br />types. And so, we work collaboratively to share the information. <br />CHR. CABANAS: Are you encouraging all departments to do that? <br />MS. TOKIHIRO: We, as a department, haven't necessarily been encouraging that, but it's nice <br />to see departments stepping up and taking that initiative to do that. I did seeMichelle, our <br />Recruitment and Examination Manager, actually showed me thea post that the Police <br />Department had done about the physical agility test to show exactly what is expected and <br />required of the physical agility test to be a police recruit. And I thought that was great because it <br />was very specific to give—it took the applicant through the route so that they could see and <br />know what that performance standard is that they would need to meet. <br />CHR. CABANAS: I did see that and I thought it was really well done. <br />MS. TOKIHIRO: Yeah. <br />CHR. CABANAS: Because, like you said, it shows each—and it's very—it's so enough for <br />anyone out there who's thinking of it or who had not thought about it—and might want to give it <br />a try. I thought it was really well done. <br />But, perhaps, it might be a good idea to encourage all departments because, although HR is in <br />charge of recruitment, actually, every employee in the County can be a recruiter. <br />MS. TOKIHIRO: Absolutely. <br />CHR. CABANAS: Every department should be recruiting for their positions to enhance the <br />recruitment process. <br />Page 7 <br />
