Facts and Figures

Personnel Services Department

The City of Santa Ana is an equal opportunity employer. We encourage all persons to file applications with us and we do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, age, sex, national origin, veteran status, mental or physical disability. All job offers are contingent upon the successful completion of a background process which may include a police records check and a medical examination which includes drug screening.

Please note: All city recruitments require completion of an application form. A separate application form must be submitted for EACH recruitment (For example, if you wish to apply for Sr. Office Assistant & Sr. Office Assistant/Bilingual, you must submit two application forms – one for each). Some recruitments may also require completion of a Supplemental Application Form (SAF). Please review the selection procedure for the position you are interested in, to verify which forms (application and/or SAF) are required. Submit required documents to the Personnel Department, unless otherwise noted.
