Mr VJP Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 NYS OCFS (Office of Children and Family Services) 57081 State Hwy 10 South Kortright, NY 13842 607-538-9121 x1623 This facility is in Delaware County. Pay starts at $40,000 for staff positions, but there are other higher pay grade positions that pay more. There is lots of overtime, (some is mandated overtime) great benefits and pension plan, all training providing. With overtime, many first year staff earn above $60,000. I believe some college is required. Age is not a barrier to hiring if you are at least 21 and under 60. It's a corrections position working with criminal youth under 18 years of age. Call for info and an application. (Other OCFS facilities throughout NY State also have openings.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pygmy Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Sounds like my dream job. Too bad I'm too old. Besides, I'm nearly out of grenades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I interviewed at Brookwood Secure Center , Claverack NY about 3 years ago for a Maintenance Mechanic's position - I didn't get the job . The individual that did was carried out on a stretcher about 6 months later - 3 of the occupants beat him to a pulp ! Glad I didn't get the job !!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrGroundhog Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 So that's why they pay so much! Do you need a civil service test for their positions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr VJP Posted April 29, 2014 Author Share Posted April 29, 2014 (edited) No. BTW the Brookwood Secure Facility is a SECURE facility. The worst of the worst are there and there have been a lot of assaults on staff. The other facilities are Limited Secure and not as bad.

DoOver Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 That doesn't seem like a nice thing for a yoot to do. Seems like they might have a high employee turn over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
