The hiring process at DD Services is long and thorough, usually taking more than one month. Because DD Services is a non-profit government-funded organization, you first have to take a civil service exam before you may be hired.

This exam is a thorough examination of several assessments, including:

Written tests, which are usually multiple-choice questions and sometimes essay questions.
Oral tests, where candidates appear before a panel of examiners, or sometimes before a video camera, to make a presentation.
Performance tests, where candidates are evaluated on how well they perform a sample of the work.
Training and Experience evaluations, for which each candidate's education and work experience is rated against the job requirements. Training and Experience evaluations do not require a candidate to appear.
Physical/Agility tests for some positions, where candidates may be required to demonstrate physical abilities necessary for the job.

Upon passing the civil services exam, a candidate is eligible to submit an application for a role at DD Services. At this point, the hiring manager reaches out to schedule one or more short interviews to review qualifications and ask standard interview questions.

A successful candidate is asked to complete a background check and drug test, and as long as both are completed successfully, they are hired into the position and able to start training.
