San Diego County Sheriff's Department is Hiring

The San Diego County Sheriff's Department is hiring. Recruitment for sworn positions will open for ten days in February. It means you can apply on‐line for the position and register to take the written exam. The application process is often suspended to process all those that have come in.

Open recruitment begins Monday, February 3rd through Wednesday, February 12th. Just go to www.joinsdsheriff.net to apply. Applicants will be required to complete a comprehensive background investigation.

The Sheriff's Department has job opportunities for professional staff, as well as sworn deputy sheriff positions. We are particularly in need of female applicants as the first phase of the new San Diego County Women's Detention and Re‐Entry Facility is expected to be completed this summer.
