Jobs in Atlanta/ Athens Georgia Area

[hcfdpalmer9]

Anyone know anywhere in the Athens or Atlanta area that is hiring? I live about 75 miles north of Atlanta and am looking for anywhere that is hiring. I have put in applications at several places, and even gotten one interview... Anywhere else that is hiring would be a great help I just want to have plenty of options in case one falls through.

Cobb County, GA is accepting applications till Dec. 30.

I put in with Cobb County yesterday. Thanks. Anywhere else?

I think Rome, GA has continuous recruitment entry-level. If you're certified, I think Woodstock and Augusta will take your application too.

Whoops...Rome's posting closed in September.

Does Clayton County use the CPAT for their Physical test? Don't seem to hear to much about that department.
