Careers That Give Back

Once you submit your application, the Civil Service Office staff will review it for completeness and ensure that you meet the minimum qualifications listed in the job description and posting. You will then be notified via email about the status of your application.

If you are accepted, you will be invited to an exam. Each exam is different and tailored to the position being advertised. The competitive nature of these exams helps establish lists based on the scores you receive. Your total ranking will be determined by your exam score, plus any veteran preference or seniority points, if applicable.

All hiring must be done from a Civil Service list, so when the Human Resources Department and the hiring manager(s) want to hire individuals, they will contact the Civil Service Office and request names from the eligibility list. From there, you will be contacted by the Human Resources Department for an interview.

When the hiring manager(s) select you to proceed in the hiring process, the Human Resources department will present you with a contingent job offer.

A comprehensive background investigation will be conducted on the application. With successful completion of the comprehensive background investigation, the Human Resources team will inform the applicant of the next step in the process. 

Once you successfully complete any other job-specific screenings or evaluations, a formal offer of employment will be extended to you. The Human Resources team will inform you of the offer and arrange your start date. Congratulations!
