The Gwinnett County Police Department is actively working to hire police and communication officers. The department will conduct a hiring event 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. July 10 and 11 at their Training Center, 854 Winder Highway in Lawrenceville. Pre-registration is encouraged but not required.
Accepted candidates will receive a $2,000 hiring bonus. On average the hiring process takes about 60 days for police officers, but the department plans to offer immediate conditional job offers for those qualifying during the event.
