WORK SESSION: <br /> <br />Police Auditor Recruitment Process <br /> <br /> <br />Alana Holmes, Human Resources, referred to information in the agenda packet related to the seven <br />recruitment firms who had responded with information regarding the search for a police auditor. She said <br />the council would select two firms to interview by phone following the September 17 work session. She said <br />a decision based on the results of those interviews could be made at the council’s September 24 work <br />session. <br /> <br />Ms. Holmes said the seven firms were evaluated using a screening matrix that included factors such as cost, <br />experience, process and timeline and access to candidates. She reviewed the results for the following firms: <br /> <br />? <br /> Alliance Resources Counseling <br />? <br /> Avery Associates <br />? <br /> Bob Murray & Associates <br />? <br /> Mercer Group <br />? <br /> Prothman <br />? <br /> Waldron & Company <br />? <br /> Walters-Oldani <br /> <br />Ms. Taylor suggested determining if there were any firms in which no one was interested. She was most <br />interested in Alliance and Waldron and would consider Avery or Mercer, but was not interested in Prothman <br />or Bob Murray & Associates. <br /> <br />Mr. Poling indicated he was interested in Bob Murray & Associates based on the information provided and <br />the council’s previous experience with the firm. He was not interested in moving any of the other firms <br />forward. <br /> <br />Mr. Pryor said he liked Bob Murray & Associates and Alliance. He would be willing to consider Avery if <br />three firms were interviewed. <br /> <br /> <br />MINUTES—Eugene City Council September 10, 2008 Page 1 <br /> Work Session <br /> <br />
