Interested in working with us?

Want to know our likes and dislikes? Want to know if you're a good match for the YCSO? You can always find information about what we're looking for in our staff and what our hiring process looks like by checking out our Join The Team page.

Word to the wise - if you think you might be interested in joining our team, two things can help you prepare for when we post openings - go ahead and get your testing done with National Testing Network (NTN) and schedule a ride along with one of our Enforcement deputies. We also provide the opportunity for an informal job-shadowing in the jail; please contact Administrative Sergeant Ruby if you would like to request information. The NTN testing is a required part of the application process; the ride along or job-shadowing is optional and intended to help you get a better understanding of our agency and who you'd be working alongside.
