Parking:
Candidates
who have been invited to interviews at the main campus should park in the main parking lot
in Staff Lot 1 (click here to view the campus map), which is
accessible via the main entrance to the campus.
Please note: The main campus is currently
undergoing heavy construction and nearly half of Staff Lot 1 is being used to house
modular buildings. If no spaces are available in Staff
Lot 1, the next closest place to park is Student Lot 15,
located in front of the Howard Brubeck Theatre.
Parking permits are required during the week.
Free two-hour visitors' parking permits are available at the
Campus Police kiosk in the driveway of Staff Lot 1, or the
Campus Police office, which is located to the left side of
Staff Lot 1. If you have been invited to
interview for a full-time faculty or administrative
position, or if the interview process is scheduled for more
than two hours, we will mail a one-day visitor's permit to
you. Please note: any vehicle that is
not displaying an appropriate parking permit may be subject
to citation by Campus Police.
Parking spaces for vehicles
displaying parking placards for those with disabilities
are located along the
northern edge of Staff Lot 1 directly in front of the
Administrative Services (A) and D buildings.
Candidates who have been
invited to interviews taking place at other locations may or
may not need parking permits depending on the interview
location. We will notify you when we schedule your
interview where to park and whether a permit is needed.

Where to report:
Interviews at the main campus:
For weekday interviews,
please report to the Human Resource Services office at the
appointed time given to you when we scheduled your interview. A
Palomar College employee will meet you to take you to the
interview location or pre-interview activity location.
The HR office is located in room A-1, Administrative
Services building, which is located adjacent to the main parking
lot.
For weekend interviews, report to
the flagpole, which is visible from Staff Lot 1 unless otherwise
directed.
A Palomar College employee will meet you there and take you to the
interview location or pre-interview activity location.
Interviews at other
locations:
Directions on where to report will be given to you when we
contact you to schedule your interview.
Candidates for full-time faculty and
administrative positions will receive a campus map
indicating where to report with their interview confirmation
materials.

Driving
time: Traffic in San
Diego County and surrounding areas is often very heavy, and
several major road construction projects are currently
underway throughout the county. Candidates should therefore
allow themselves extra time when driving to Palomar.
Generally, from downtown San Diego and San Diego
International Airport, Orange County, and
Riverside County, it can take from 45 minutes to 2 hours to
drive to Palomar. From the Los Angeles area, driving time may be
2-3 hours.
Top
Local airports:
Most major airlines have operations at San
Diego International Airport-Lindbergh Field (SAN), located
in downtown San Diego, which is the largest airport in the
county. A small local airport, McClellan-Palomar Airport (CRQ/CLD),
is located in Carlsbad, a 15-25 minute drive from the
College.
United Express and America West Express operate flights
through this airport.

Public transportation:
Inland North County's new commuter train, the Sprinter, has
a station directly across the street from main entrance to
the main campus. The Coaster, the commuter train that
serves coastal cities in the county, connects with the
Sprinter at the Oceanside station. A bus station for North
County Transit District buses is also located at the main
entrance to the College.
Click here
to visit the North County Transit District's website for
schedules and additional information.
If you are
using public transportation, please ensure that your transportation schedule will allow
you to arrive earlier
than the time of your appointment.

discounts, and amenities listed are subject to change and

Travel reimbursement:
Palomar College is unable to reimburse candidates for
interview expenses for classified, Child Development Center teacher, and most
supervisory and mid-level administrator positions. Finalists
for full-time faculty and higher-level administrator
positions, however, may be reimbursed for some travel
expenses associated with the second-level interview.
The District can only reimburse candidates who live a
distance of 150 miles or more from the College. If you are
eligible for travel reimbursement, Employment Services will
notify you of your eligibility at the time that your second-level interview is
scheduled, and we will explain what expenses we can
reimburse and what documentation is required for
reimbursement.

do if I'm running late or want to cancel or reschedule my
interview?
Please contact us at (760) 744-1150 ext. 3043
or ext. 2609 as soon as possible so that we may notify the
selection committee. If you are late or wish to
reschedule, please note that we are unable to guarantee that

availability of the selection committee members. We
will contact the committee on your behalf with your request.
