Applications will only be accepted online during a four-day period beginning at 8 a.m. on Monday, July 7, and ending at 5 p.m. on Thursday, July 10, 2014.  This brief application period marks the first time this year the CHP has accepted applications.  Those interested in applying, or seeking additional information, should visit www.chpcareers.com.

“A life with the CHP is a career, not a job,” added Commissioner Farrow.  “We invite all interested members of our communities to apply during the four day application period.”
