All applications submitted in response to the Career Opportunities are reviewed to identify the applicants who meet the minimum qualifications for the job. Applicants who do not meet the minimum qualifications are usually notified by mail.

During the application review process, applicants meeting the minimum qualifications are screened based on relevance of education and experience.

Applications are ‘scored’ based on a criterion of the fundamental elements of the position.

Application and resume screening is a method for separating unqualified, marginally qualified, and prospectively qualified applicants solely on the basis of the applicant's "paper credentials." This paper screening is an attempt to determine which applicants appear on paper to be the most qualified, appear to have the most suitable work experience or related background, and appear in all other respects to be right for further consideration.

Depending on the urgency to fill the position, interviews will be scheduled soon after the screening process.

Adults who are on supervised probation are required by law to pay a $50 per month supervision fee. Other fines and fees plus restitution may be ordered as well. If you are unable to pay immediately, your Probation Officer will refer you to the Collections Office to set up a payment schedule that fits with your personal budget. If you are a lower risk case and supervised by the private provider who contracts with the Probation Department, your supervision fee will be paid to the provider instead of the Collection Office of the Court.

A non-family member can petition the court to adopt a child they are caring for if: 

• The birth parents have abandoned the child for one year or more, or 
• The birth parents have failed to provide reasonable support for the child, such as failing to pay child support, for one year or more. 
• The non-family member must have legal custody over the child established either through an Allocation of Parental Responsibilities (APR) or Guardianship case. The non-family member will petition the court for a “Custodial Adoption.” C.R.S. § 19-5-203(k)
