YOU MUST FILE SEPARATELY FOR THE ABOVE EXAMINATIONS
EVEN IF YOU ALREADY HAVE A BATTERY SCORE.
SUBJECTS OF EXAMINATION: The examination consists of:
For Examination Nos. 06-711, 06-712, and 06-713:
- Meeting the minimum qualifications on or before November 30, 2006;
- Taking any previously held Mid-Level Managers and Administrators Promotion Test Battery; and

NOTE: All candidates who meet the minimum qualifications and who participated in any previously held Mid-Level and High-Level Managers and Administrators Promotion Test Battery as of November 2006 are eligible regardless of their score on the Battery test.
For Examination Nos. 06-711, 06-712, 06-713, 06-714, and 06-715 (M-2 through M-6): Final scores will be computed by equally weighting your score of 70 or higher on the Evaluation of Training and Experience and your best score on any previously held Mid-Level Managers and Administrators (for 06-711, 06-712, and 06-713) or High-Level Managers and Administrators (for 06-714, and 06-715) Promotion Test Battery. If you pass, your seniority credit(s), if any, will be included in the computation of your final score. Rank on the eligible list will be determined after adding any war-time veteran's credits to your final passing score.
For Examination No. 06-716 (M-7): Final scores will be computed by combining, as shown below, your score of 70 or higher on the Evaluation of Training and Experience and your best score on any previously held High-Level Managers and Administrators Promotion Test Battery.
| Promotion Test Battery |
Relative Weight (1) |
| Evaluation of Training and Experience |
Relative Weight (2) |
If you pass, your seniority credit(s), if any, will be included in the computation of your final score. Rank on the eligible list will be determined after adding any war-time veterans' credits to your final passing score.
NOTE: Best Battery scores received between 1996 and November 2006 will be used for these examinations. Battery scores received post 2006 will NOT be used for these examinations, Nos. 06-711 thru 06-716.
SCOPE OF POSITION-SPECIFIC EVALUATION OF TRAINING AND EXPERIENCE
Your training and experience will be evaluated in the following areas, as relevant to the particular position being filled:
Program Area Experience
Policies, Procedures, Guidelines
Resource Management
Program Area Expertise
Training
If your application is approved, you will be sent a training and experience inventory questionnaire which you must complete and return to the Department of Civil Service.* When the Department of Transportation has a position to be filled, it will prepare a selection profile. That profile will identify the training and experience characteristics relevant to the vacancy. Civil Service will score and rank eligible candidates according to how closely their training and experience correspond to the selection profile. Note that your score and rank may vary considerably for each position to which you are certified. It will not be possible for the Department of Civil Service to determine a score or rank in the absence of any actual agency request to fill a position.
If as a result of this examination series you receive a permanent appointment to a position at one salary grade or M-grade level, your name will be removed from consideration for all other positions at or below that level. For example, if you receive a permanent appointment to Civil Engineer 5, M-4 your name will be removed from consideration for all other M-4 positions as well as for all M-3/G-29 and M-2/G-27 positions. If you are eligible for appointment to higher level you will retain your eligibility for consideration to those positions. If you decide to resign your position during the probationary period, you must ask to have your name restored to the list(s) if you want to be considered for future appointments.
* Additional unsolicited information will not be accepted after the list is established.
