The posting

Are you a practical, courtroom-ready attorney with a prosecutor’s instincts and an interest in municipal law? Are you looking for a role where you can grow into a leadership position in a close-knit public law office? If so, the City of Farmington invites you to apply to become its next Deputy City Attorney.

Farmington sits in the northwest corner of New Mexico, at the heart of the nation’s Four Corners region, where the San Juan, Animas, and La Plata rivers come together. As the largest city in the Four Corners and the commercial center of San Juan County, Farmington serves a trade area that stretches well beyond its city limits. It is small enough to feel like home and large enough to offer the amenities of a regional hub.

Appointed by and reporting to the City Attorney, the Deputy City Attorney handles prosecution in Municipal Court, advises City departments and officials, and steps in for the City Attorney when needed. The City will consider candidates at the Deputy or Assistant City Attorney level, depending on qualifications. We’re seeking an attorney who is:

• Grounded in prosecution and comfortable carrying a Municipal Court docket

• Practical and politically aware in a city council setting

• Interested in preparing to lead the City Attorney’s Office in the coming years

The City of Farmington offers a competitive salary of $75,191 – $116,906, DOQ, along with a comprehensive benefits package designed to support employees’ health, financial security, and overall well-being. The City is willing to negotiate the salary. Residency within City limits is not required.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
