If you fail the first exam subject, you will not be eligible for the subsequent exam and therefore cannot be considered for the job. You will be notified of your exam results by mail. Once you pass all subject parts of the exam, your name is placed on an eligible list. As job openings arise, you may be contacted by mail and asked to call for a job interview. If you are not contacted for a job interview right away, your name will remain on the eligible list until you are hired or until the list expires, usually after one year.
Some lists last two years at the request of the hiring department.
The City of Saint Paul encourages applications from persons of color, women and persons with disabilities. Persons with disabilities may request a testing accommodation on the application form. We will do our best to provide accommodations at the exam location. For example, we can provide sign language interpreters or readers. If you need special accommodations, it is your responsibility to contact us several days before the exam, so we can make the necessary arrangements.
