Call Reid at 432-0777 at Pikeville, Kentucky to learn more. Pikeville Dispatch has extended their search for new 911 operators by one week. They are currently seeking full-time workers who can stay cool under pressure in order to keep the citizens of Pikeville safe. Pikeville 911 director Cody Williams goes into detail about their expectations for applicants. What we're looking for in a candidate is someone that is level-headed, someone that is able to stay calm under pressure. The saying for Dispatch is we're the calm voice in the dark. So that's what we really look for in a candidate is somebody that's able to remain cool under pressure. You've got to be able to multitask. If you can't multitask, then you're going to sink fast. You've got to be able to listen with both ears, be able to listen to a phone call in one ear and radio chatter in the other ear. Also somebody that's kind of calm vocal-wise. You don't want to scare the person on the other line. You want to be that calm reassuring voice to tell them everything's going to be alright and that help is on the way. Once hired, operators will have to attend a five-week long training course before working at the Dispatch Center. Those interested in the position can apply online at pikevilleky.gov. Whoever applies for this position, that's wanting them to know that there is a mandatory five-week training academy. You'll get to come home on the weekends. It is at a DOCJT in Richmond, so you can expect to be away for at least five weeks. Then whenever you come back here, I say that's whenever your real training is going to start, is after you get out of the academy and then actually get behind the console to actually do it.
