(Versailles, Ind.) – The Indiana DNR needs Conservation Officers.

Anyone interested in becoming an Indiana Conservation Officer is encouraged to attend a recruiting event on Sunday, May 23 at Recreation Hall inside Versailles State Park starting at 3:00 p.m.

A second recruiting event will take place Saturday, June 5 at the Schilling Community Center in Brookville at 10:00 a.m.

Each event will cover critical portions of the 2021 Indiana Conservation Officer hiring process, including duties of a conservation officer, preparation for the written exam, preparation for core values training, and physical agility testing requirements.

Participation at either recruiting event does not guarantee you a position but should provide insight into the competitive hiring process.

Both recruiting events will be hosted by the DNR Law Enforcement District 9, which includes Rush, Fayette, Union, Decatur, Franklin, Jennings, Ripley, Dearborn, Jefferson, Switzerland, and Ohio counties.

To see if you qualify to be an Indiana Conservation Officer and to complete the pre-screen exam, see on.IN.gov/dnrlaw and click on Become a Conservation Officer.

Questions regarding the District 9 recruiting events should be directed to ICO Travis Stewart, 812-340-8323.
