I
want
to
start
by
su
simple
questions.
Introduce
yourself
and
help
us
understand
what
is
the
Department
of
Public
Works
and
what's
happening
now
in
public
works
right
now,.
D
Yes,
thank
you,
Michael
for
having
me
I'm
excited
to
share
this
information.
My
name
is
Monique
fish
and
I
am
the
workforce
coordinator
for
our
public
works
department,
which
is
the
largest
apartment
in
the
City
of
Minneapolis,
with
nine
divisions
and
over
a
thousand
employees,
and
we
take
care
of
everything
from
our
drinking
water
streets,
Paving,
garbage
traffic
signs
and
signals
to
our
surface
water.
D
So
all
the
areas
that
we
are
hiring
for
right
now
include
our
Fleet
Services,
Solid,
Waste
and
Recycling
Transportation
maintenance
and
repair
traffic
and
parking
services
and
surface
water
and
sewer.
All
of
these
are
what
we're
here
to
talk
about
today
with
all
of
you
in
the
community
about
the
multiple
vacancies
that
we
have
open
for
application
now,.
E
C
D
C
D
Yes,
there
are
a
variety
of
positions
open
for
application
right
now
in
public
works,
three
of
them
that
I
would
like
to
focus
on.
Are
our
Public
Works
service
worker
trainee?
That
is
a
12-month
trainee
program
that
helps
new
employees,
get
the
training
and
experience
that
that
need
for
a
successful
career
with
us
in
public
works.
D
They
perform
maintenance
activities,
they
learn
how
to
drive
and
operate
equipment,
and
we
support
the
trainees
in
obtaining
their
commercial
driver's
license
a
Class,
B
learning
how
to
plow
and
how
to
safely
operate
equipment,
and
you
don't
have
to
have
any
previous
experience
for
that
training
position.
We
also
have
a
service
worker
Public,
Works
service
worker.
One
position
is
for
people
who
have
experience.
D
These
are
jobs
for
people
who
have
a
commercial
driver's
license,
Class
B,
and
they
also
perform
those
maintenance
activities,
drive
and
operate,
equip
treatment
to
support
the
city
with
its
construction
and
maintenance
activities.
Our
third
trainee
position
is
auto
mechanic,
trainee
position,
and
this
is
a
full-time
paid
position,
as
well
as
the
others
that
splits
their
time
between
Technical
College
at
St,
Paul,
College
and
working
in
one
of
our
mechanic
shops.
So
tuition
is
covered
by
the
City
of
Minneapolis
and
no
previous
experience
is
needed
for
that
position
as
well.
E
E
D
Yes,
great
question:
if
you
like
to
work
outside
on
a
job
that
has
variety,
this
is
for
you.
These
positions
have
mostly
outdoor
working
environments,
working
in
all
weather
elements.
So
since
we
are
taking
care
of
the
City
of
Minneapolis,
most
of
our
work
sites
are
located
in
Minneapolis
or
just
outside
of
the
city
limits,
and
that's
really
nice,
because
90
of
our
locations
are
on
trouble.
Public
transit
lines.
D
Yes,
absolutely
so
these
Public
Works
service
worker
trainee
positions
is
a
12
month.
Long
training
position
for
applicants.
We
have
hired
on
to
our
Public
Works
team.
Our
mechanic
automatic,
auto
mechanic
training
position
is
also
the
same
applicants.
We
have
hired
into
our
Public
Works
department
and
they
include
college
courses
and
Hands-On
work
in
our
shops,
so
the
time
would
be
split
between
those,
and
that
is
a
longer
training
process,
approximately
three
years
so
that
they
can
complete
their
college
courses
for
both
of
these
trainee
positions.
E
E
E
E
C
D
C
D
Yes,
they
should
apply
soon.
All
of
our
positions
that
we're
talking
about
today
are
open
for
application
right
now
and
close
on
Wednesday
May
31st.
So
you
want
to
share
complete
thorough
information,
so
you
want
to
start
that
process
early
in
case
you
have
any
questions
throughout
the
application
process.
E
C
D
Yes,
good
question,
so
our
applications
are
online
at
the
City
of
Minneapolis

and
you

but

experience

help
share
this
information
with

families
and
community
members
are
aware
of
this
as
well.
E
C
D
Yeah,

At
that
time,
our
