Career Recruiting

Welcome to the Hot Springs Police Department's online recruiting center. We are delighted to know that you are interested in pursuing an exciting and rewarding career in law enforcement or that you may be considering continuing your law enforcement career with us after having served with another law enforcement agency or in the military.

We activate testing and application procedures once a year (or more often if deemed necessary to maintain a sufficient hiring list).

If you would like to be notified when a position becomes available or when the police officer testing process is activated you can sign up for job notifications on the Notify Me page.

If you are interested in applying for a police department position or if you have questions about employment at the police department call Hot Springs Human Resources at 501-321-6841 or visit their office at 133 Convention Boulevard, Hot Springs, AR.
