City government openings this month - 18 weeks in

The city and county near Memphis both posted administrative and maintenance openings this week. It has been a long 18 weeks. Hiring is slower than private jobs. Do they prefer local residents?

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 5 months ago, and it got easier once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
