Officer with a minimum of three years as a commissioned Police OfFicer with the Renton Police

EXAMINATION CONTENT:
JMF&Associates was contracted to facilitate the Assessment Center and the Work Rating. The
examination consisted of three major parts: Written Exam, Department Work Rating, and Assessment
Center. A combined (Written Examination, Department Work Rating, and Assessment Center) minimum
score of 70�o was required for placement on the eligibility list.
Written Examination—Worth 159�0 of the total score. This did not require a 709�o to proceed but was
combined with the final score. The assessors for the written assignment were Deputy Chief Tim Troxel
and Commander Katie McClincy.
Department Work Rating—Worth 30�'0 of the total score. This did not require a 709'o to proceed but was
combined with the final score. Raters were 10 Sergeants,and they rated on a "consensus"with five
dimensions being rated. Each dimension was weighted differently based on a survey provided to the
Sergeants prior to the work rating. The Sergeants did not know the weighting of the individual
dimensions. If more than six raters scored,then the high and low scores were removed and the average
was the initial discussion point.
Assessment Center—Worth 55�'0 of the total score. This assessment center consisted of three parts,
which were all weighted differently within the assessment center. The Oral Board Interview was worth
