<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL - JULY 26,1999 <br /> <br />23 <br /> <br />Tribune might be enough. He noted that there was generally a larger response when advertising <br />in the Star Tribune than in the Pioneer Press. <br /> <br />Councilmember Aplikowski asked if the City was required to publicize for the position. Mr. <br />Fritsinger stated tllat it was not a requirement, however, it would make sense to follow this <br />process. <br /> <br />Councilmember Aplikowski asked if any ofthe Councilmembers or staff knew of anyone who <br />may be a good candidate for the City Administrator position. <br /> <br />Councilmember Malone noted that all the individuals who had applied for the position last time <br />were good eandidates. However, it was likely that these prospects all have new jobs. He noted <br />that the City had not known any of these candidates prior to reeeiving their applications and they <br />all turned out to be good candidates. <br /> <br />Councilmember Larson stated that the deadline for the Star Tribune was Thursday for <br />advertisement in the Sunday newspaper. Mayor Probst suggested that the staf1 find out what the <br />deadline is for the League of Minnesota Cities publication in order to run the advertisements at <br />the same time. <br /> <br />Mr. Fritsinger stated that, from a timing standpoint, the issue was not so much publicizing the <br />advertisement, as it was gathering the necessary information in order to respond to the <br />applications as they come in. He felt that an extra week before advertising would be beneficial to <br />staff in order to gather all the information and be prepared to respond to the applicants. <br /> <br />Council member Aplikowski stated that she would be willing to serve on a subcommittee to assist <br />in the hiring process. <br /> <br />Mr. Post suggested that it might be worth eonsidering the use of a consultant in a lesser capacity. <br />Mr. Fritsinger stated that he was not sure how this would affect the process being discussed. He <br />indicated that a consultant would have to be met with prior to proceeding much further. <br /> <br />Councilmember Malone stated that when his company was hiring a new executive, a panel of <br />interviewers was set up with a set of predetermined questions. The interviews were scheduled for <br />one hour each. Each of the interviewers asked each of the applieants two questions and the order <br />of questions remained the same for each applicant. <br /> <br />Councilmember Rem stated that when she had assisted in the interviewing process for the Parks <br />and Recreation Director position, Mr. Fritsinger had prepared a script for the interviews. She <br />stated that it would also be helpful to know that each of the applicants would be asked the same <br />set of questions, in the same sequence. <br /> <br />Mayor Probst asked if it would be possible at the next Council meeting to present the City <br />Council with the application package and interview process that was used the last time the City <br />Administrator's position was filled. Mr. Fritsinger stated that he was not sure that the previous <br />applieations would still be available, as the City normally only keeps applications for two years. <br />
