After an application deadline, all applications will be screened according to selection criteria in OAR 845-015-0125 (Retail Sales Agent Selection Criteria) and qualified applicants will be selected for interview. After reviewing applications and screening results, an interview committee conducts personal interviews. The interview committee scores the applicants and recommends finalists who are most qualified based on the selection criteria in 845-015-0125 (Retail Sales Agent Selection Criteria). From the finalists, the Commission appoints a retail sales agent using the criteria in 845-015-0125 (Retail Sales Agent Selection Criteria).

An appointed retail sales agent must submit a retail liquor store improvement plan for approval, enter into a Retail Sales Agent Agreement, purchase fixtures and equipment at an established price or provide fixtures and equipment where none are available for purchase, and begin operation of a retail liquor store on the date the Commission specifies. If an appointed retail sales agent cannot purchase, rent or lease, and equip an approved location and begin operation by the required date, the Commission(ers) may select another applicant from the list of finalists.
