No, applications are accepted only for those positions for which there is a listed opening. If you are interested in a position not listed, you can submit an "interest card" to the Personnel division. The City will then send you a job flyer and application when there is an opening for the position in which you are interested. Interest cards and a listing of all Claremont job positions are available at City Hall.

How do I apply for a job with the City?
The first step is to obtain an official City of Claremont job application. You can get an application either in person from City Hall (207 Harvard Avenue), by downloading and printing a PDF version of the form from the City website, or by calling Personnel at (909) 399-5450.
You must then return the completed application to the City, either in person at City Hall or by mail (P.O. Box 880, Claremont CA 91711-0880). Faxed copies are not accepted. Be sure to complete all forms, including the application, the background acknowledgement, the applicant data pool information, and the alcohol/drug screening form. Also, be sure to indicate for which position you would like to apply. Applications must be received by the Personnel division no later than the deadline listed in the job flyer - postmarks do not qualify.
