Hiring Process
Candidates are screened through an application process. Successful applicants are interviewed by a board of KHP personnel and are required to pass a typing test. A background investigation and polygraph precede any offer of employment.
What you’ll need to apply:
- Submit an application through the State of Kansas Career Portal
- Search by job title or position number
- Apply for a Tax Clearance Certificate
- Each applicant (even non-residents) applying for a State of Kansas job vacancy must obtain a valid Kansas Certificate of Tax Clearance by accessing the Kansas Department of Revenue’s website. A Tax Clearance is a comprehensive tax account review to determine and ensure that an individual’s account is compliant with all primary Kansas Tax Laws. A Tax Clearance expires every 90 days. All applicants, including current state employees, are responsible for submitting a valid certificate with all other application materials to the hiring agency.
- Email the tax clearance to the Kansas Highway Patrol Human Resource Office.
- Include the job requisition number and your last name in the subject line or fax to 785-296-7908.
- If not submitted with the application, it must be submitted during the background investigation.
- Applicants must pass a background investigation before receiving any final offer of employment.
