The Hays County Commissioners Court held a workshop and discussion during Tuesday's meeting to review Hays County's compensation practices and approaches going forward.
During the workshop, Director of Human Resources Shari Miller reported that the county is preparing to put together the specs for an RFP request for a compensation study. Miller also mentioned that previously, the county's job analysis, job descriptions, compensation studies and market studies have all been done internally.
“About a third of the jobs that we have posted right now, we have 10 or more applicants and when you have multiple vacancies in your department, which I personally don't experience, I have one vacancy right now, really good applicants, thankfully. It's frustrating and scary to think that your jobs are going to be vacant for a long time,” Miller said.
