Because some County vacancies fall under one of two Merit Boards and other vacancies do not, the rules for posting vacancies and testing and processing applicants will vary somewhat. The following general rules apply in most cases. You must submit an application or resume to be considered for a position. ALL applications are reviewed to determine compliance with minimum requirements as specified on the job posting. If testing is required, you will be informed accordingly when you submit your application form.
All qualified applications are good for one year.
If your application falls under a Merit Board, you will be notified regarding the time your eligibility on the list begins and ends, and you will be notified of your rank on the list. When an applicant meets all requirements and is deemed qualified, the application is forwarded to the department where the vacancy exists. Applications are normally processed and forwarded within two weeks of the application deadline. The department with the vacancy reviews the applications, decides which applicants to interview, and schedules appointments for the interviews. Not all applicants will be interviewed.
