As a condition of employment for accepting this position, the selected applicant will be required to serve a 1-year probationary period or 2-year trial period during which we will evaluate the selected applicants fitness and whether continued employment advances the public interest. In determining whether the selected applicants continued employment advances the public interest, we may consider:
