Project Hire

Project Hire is a job referral program designed to support City employees who are at risk of layoff or have been laid off due to reorganization. The program’s goal is to help employees transition into other City positions before their employment ends or as soon as possible after layoff.

Project Hire is not a job placement or job search program and does not guarantee employment.
