Scheduled Promotion Exams

Continuous Recruitment Promotion or Transition Examinations Open to State Employees

Applications for Continuous Recruitment examinations are accepted continuously. There is no application deadline. The tests are held periodically, and there is opportunity for retesting. If there is a written test, applicants are informed by mail of the upcoming test date. Continuous Recruitment examinations are conducted for positions where there is an almost constant need for qualified individuals. Some examinations are conducted by the Department of Civil Service, while others are conducted by the agencies where the positions exist. Each announcement provides information on how and where to apply.

* Indicates online filing is not available for these examinations. Please refer to the examination announcement for instructions on how to file.

Note that some of the salaries shown here, and on each announcement, may not reflect the increased amounts that resulted from the recently completed negotiations between the State and the public employee unions. Our announcements are being revised and reissued to reflect this information.
