If you are not an active WEMSA Member department and would like to use the job board, you can easily create one at no cost. After you have created an account, you will be prompted to select a subscription before you will be able to post a job.

After you have logged into your account, you can choose a plan that suits your needs. Members can select the Basic Plan at no cost. You have the option to select one of our other Plan Options as well: Featured Plan, Recruitment Plan (see below for details).

(if you have already picked your plan previously, when you select Post a Job, you will be taken to a Post a Job form.)

After you have selected your plan, you can fill in your job information:

At the bottom, you can decide how you want applicants to apply. We recommend choosing Directly or By Link and add in the link to your job post if it's posted on a municipal website or employer website.

Preview Listing and complete your purchase. If you are on the Free Plan, there will be no cost/ charge.
