Exámenes actualmente disponibles
California tiene un sistema de selección basado en el mérito de quienes buscan trabajar para el gobierno. Esto garantiza que el estado contrate y promueva a personas con base en sus cualificaciones laborales. Antes de poder trabajar para el estado, debe tomar y aprobar un examen para la clasificación específica del puesto de trabajo.
Nota: Algunos puestos son temporales y no requieren un examen. Consulte el anuncio del trabajo para ver si debe completar un examen de antemano.
Una vez que complete el examen, recibirá un puntaje final y se le incluirá en una lista de elegibilidad. Solamente los candidatos que se encuentren dentro de los tres primeros niveles se considerarán elegibles para un nombramiento. A medida que se desocupan los primeros puestos, aquellos que siguen en la lista pueden ser considerados para un nombramiento también.
Tipos de examen
Hay dos tipos de exámenes: abiertos y promocionales.
Los exámenes abiertos están abiertos para cualquiera que cumple las cualificaciones mínimas enumeradas en el boletín del examen para la clasificación, independientemente de su empleo actual.
Los exámenes promocionales están limitados a empleados actuales o recientes del EDD que tienen permanent status (que aprobaron su periodo probatorio) y cumplen con las cualificaciones enumeradas en el boletín del examen para la clasificación.
Administramos muchos de nuestros exámenes abiertos y promocionales, y el Departamento de Recursos Humanos de California (CalHR) administra varios exámenes abiertos que también usamos.
Cómo inscribirse para un examen
Para obtener información sobre cómo inscribirse para un examen, siga los pasos enumerados en Cómo obtener un empleo con el estado. También debe seguir las instrucciones sobre cómo inscribirse que aparecen en el boletín del examen.
