- Written & Computerized Examinations
Written and computerized examinations are designed to measure such things as your knowledge, skills, and abilities in areas relevant to job performance in various fields. Your "Notice of Invitation" will include general information regarding the subject matter covered in the examination.
Your test will be scored and the results will be mailed to you within two weeks from the date of the examination. You will be notified of any additional testing requirement(s). If a vacancy exists, the Office of Human Resources will provide a list of names to the department where the vacancy exists for its consideration. Depending on your placement on the eligible list, you may be considered for the opening. If not, your name will remain on the eligible list for a one-year period.
Hiring decisions rest solely with the hiring department and are made within certain guidelines specified by the Merit System and appropriate union contracts.
