Why is POST requiring that the oral interview be conducted prior to a conditional offer of employment?
A.The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the California Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) both stipulate that, prior to the extension of a conditional offer of employment (COE), a candidate must have been determined to be “otherwise qualified.” To defer any part of the hiring process that does not involve disability-based inquiries jeopardizes the legitimacy of the COE.
