Career Search

San Bernardino County is one of the largest and fastest growing counties in the nation. We offer a wealth of rewarding job opportunities in various fields and it all begins with a career search. There’s two ways to search:

(1) Search active job postings HERE

(2) Search the County’s job description list HERE Can I automatically be notified when new positions open? Yes! You can sign up for Job Interest Cards so that you are notified when jobs become available. By selecting the job or job categories that you’re interested in, filling out your contact information, and clicking Submit Request, you will receive email notifications when jobs open. Remember, signing up for job interest cards is not the same as creating a application profile account. To apply for positions you need to create a an applicant profile. See Step 2 Note: After one year, your job interest card subscription expires and notifications are no longer sent. You may resubmit your job interest notification. I received notification that a job has opened, what do I do next? Go to the position you are interested in, look at the upper right-hand corner and select “APPLY”. You will be redirected to enter your applicant profile login information to begin the application process.
