I received a resume from eight people, before the deadline, who are interested in the Chief of Police position. I have reviewed the eight and I have chosen to interview three of the candidates. I should be able to offer the position to one of these applicants within a few days.

I have one interview scheduled for this afternoon. I have not contacted one of the three and I have left a phone message for the other person.

People can make a resume look good and can do an excellent job on the interview but not perform an acceptable job if given the chance. I hope that I choose the person who will do the best job for me and the city.
