The council member asks about additional educational outreach initiatives beyond the fellowship program, specifically mentioning civil service ambassador programs, that could model the advertising campaign to promote civil service examinations. The DCAS executive director explains various outreach methods they employ, including:

  • Updated job boards continuously posting events
  • Promotion on social media pages
  • Sharing community event flyers
  • Individual agencies having their own recruitment and marketing campaigns

  • The council member inquires if DCAS funds those agency campaigns

  • The executive director clarifies that DCAS does not fund the agencies' campaigns directly

Intro 8 29, also sponsored by myself, would require decast to conduct an ongoing advertising and campaign to promote civil service examinations.
1:13:58
You highlighted some of this, so if you could just share a little bit more.
1:14:01
Are there any other educational outreach initiatives besides what you do with troubleship, such as civil service ambassador programs.
1:14:08
I didn't hear about the ambassador programs, so it'd be great to highlight that that could model this advertising campaign?
1:14:14
And in the past, what methods of educational outreach to the public have proven to be the most effective Besides the fellowship program?

So as you can see, that is very impactful because our schedule is always so full because so many people want us to come out into the communities.
1:14:31
And so we, as a part of the updated job boards that we have, we continuously post events that are happening, but we also promote on our social media pages.
1:14:42
We also, again, share flyers with the communities whenever we're hosting the fun events.
1:14:48
But outside of just even decast on a city wide scale, there are agencies that have their own recruitment and marketing campaigns where you will see postings on the subways or Sometimes I'm right in a subway, and I take a picture.
1:15:01
This is awesome what the work the agencies are doing to promote their opportunities.
1:15:06
And furthermore, for one of our local laws, you will see some information around what other agencies are specifically doing.
1:15:14
And and expenditures around those plans.
1:15:16
So that's to come.

Do you fund those campaigns?
Kadian Outar
1:15:19
I'm sorry?
Farah N. Louis
1:15:19
Do you fund those campaigns?
Kadian Outar
1:15:21
No.
1:15:21
The guys does not.
1:15:22
Maybe you should fund them.
