The Gwinnett County E911 Communications Division will conduct a hiring event next month. 

The event will take place on Saturday, Dec. 7, 2024, at the Gwinnett County Police Training Center in Lawrenceville.

Phase II of the hiring process will begin in the days following the hiring event and includes background checks such as criminal and driving history, credit reporting, reference checks, employment verifications, polygraph examinations, medical/drug screening and a psychological examination.

The entire hiring process takes an average of 45 days.

Those who are hired as a Communication Officer, can receive a $4,800 hiring incentive, a 3 percent or 6 percent educational incentive for a 2 or 4-year degree, a 5 percent shift differential, annual raises and overtime opportunities. 

To be eligible for the 911 Center position, applicants must be 18 years of age, have a high school diploma or G.E.D., be a United States Citizen and be eligible for P.O.S.T. Certification.
