Yes. You must submit a separate job application for each position. When you apply online, you create an account which allows you to create and save your application, eliminating the need to complete a new application for each recruitment. An online application allows you to simply log into your account, find the new job title you are interested in and update your application (e.g., experience, education, etc.) if applicable and submit. 

Responses to supplemental questions are not saved and included in an application to a new job. If the new application has supplemental questions, you will need to submit new responses. You may also upload additional required documents electronically to your application.

No. With positions that indicate levels, there is only one exam associated with that position, so only one application needs to be submitted. Your application is reviewed at Level I for Minimum Qualifications. Once you get on the eligible list for hire, the appointing authority may bring you in at Level II provided you meet the Minimum Qualifications for that level.

The Administrative Services Officer positions will be announced separately as they are separate classes and there will be a different exam given for each. If you only applied for ASO I, your application will not be considered for ASO II and III if they are all open for recruitment. You must submit a separate application for each position. There are separate eligible lists for hire that will be established for each position.

No. The Employment Services Division does not provide copies of previously submitted applications or attached materials. We recommend that you keep a copy of the material you submit for future reference. Applications and attached materials are not available for photocopying.

No. You must submit a completed County of Sacramento Employment Application for each position you are interested in. You may attach a resume and cover letter; however the information on the resume cannot substitute for the completed application. You must also complete and submit any additional information listed on the job announcement. This may include a Supplemental Questionnaire, work samples, or copies of licenses/degrees/transcripts. Resumes will not be considered when determining Minimum Qualifications or test scores.

A Supplemental Questionnaire consists of questions related to the experience, education, training, knowledge, skills and abilities needed to perform the job. 

For Formula Rate exams, this is your Civil Service examination. Please answer each question completely and concisely. References to a resume’ or answers to other questions will result in the question not being scored. Supplemental Questionnaire instructions are outlined in the job announcement.

Your signature verifies that the materials submitted are true/accurate to the best of your knowledge. Once signed and submitted, your application packet becomes a legal document. Falsified information on an application may be cause for dismissal at any time. 

Once a completed application is submitted online, that is considered your electronic signature.

We only accept applications online and no longer accept hard copy applications. Applications are only accepted for positions that are open for recruitment. Completed applications, along with any other required documents, must be in by 5:00 PM on the final filing or cut-off date. 

The final filing or cut-off date is listed on all job announcements. In your online account, you can view a copy of the application, materials you submitted, and job announcement to assist you in preparing for any test and/or interview process that may be required.

The Employment Services Division will review the information in the Education and Work Experience sections on your Application, but not the Supplemental Questionnaire, against the current Minimum Qualifications outlined in the job announcement.

Please list all paid work experience, licenses, professional affiliations, classes you have taken, training you have received, applicable volunteer work and any other special qualifications you possess which relate to the position for which you are applying.  

Full time paid experience on the basis of a 40 hour work week is counted towards the experience portion of the minimum qualifications, unless the announcement indicates volunteer experience is acceptable. Part time experience may be accumulated and pro-rated to meet the experience requirement.  

Without accurate and complete information, we will not be able to determine whether or not you meet the Minimum Qualifications for the job. It is very important to include all requested information and specific job duties. Failure to include requested information will result in rejection of your application. Responses of ‘see resume’ will not be considered and may cause you to be disqualified from the exam process.

No, full time paid experience on the basis of a 40 hour work week is counted towards the experience portion of the minimum qualifications, unless the announcement indicates volunteer experience is acceptable. Part time experience may be accumulated and pro-rated to meet the experience requirement.
​​

In order to receive every consideration in the selection process, you must complete all questions with concise but detailed answers and provide all requested information. Each answer on your Supplemental Questionnaire will be scored separately. Reference such as ‘See Resume’ as a response will not be scored.

  1. The applicant does not provide enough detail about their work experience and duties in the Work Experience section on their application. For example, if you are applying for Automotive Mechanic, just writing “10 years as mechanic at XYZ Ford” doesn’t provide enough detail about your duties. Writing “As a mechanic at XYZ Ford dealership, I performed computerized diagnostics, repaired and replaced all components of the drive train, specialized in repairing hybrid vehicles, and did trouble-shooting of difficult electrical problems.” provides enough information to assess your experience to see if it meets the Minimum Qualifications.
  2. Required documents are not attached to the application, such as a transcript, diploma, or typing certificate. If the Job Announcement states you must attach documents to substantiate your education or certifications, your application will be rejected if you don’t. If you have previously applied online, you maybe able to choose previously submitted documents to attach to your new application.

Minimum Qualifications can change over time as the job duties and needs change over time. Therefore, it is possible that you could have qualified in the past for a particular exam and not for the current exam administration.

In addition, your application is reviewed for these Minimum Qualifications based on what you submit in your current application, as we do not refer back to previous applications and exam files.

You may reapply for most exams as often as the job opportunity is announced. You may apply only once per cut-off for continuous filing applications.

In accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the County of Sacramento provides reasonable accommodations for applicants with disabilities during employment examinations. 

If the Job Announcement for the position you are applying for states “Formula Rate,” you will have already completed the exam when you submitted your application. 

If the Job Announcement indicates a Written, Performance or Oral Exam, and you need a Reasonable Accommodation to participate in that Exam, please review the Job Applicant Exam Reasonable Accommodation Information and submit an Employment Exam Reasonable Accommodation Online Request Form, with required documentation, to the Disability Compliance Office (DCO) by the Exam’s final filing date. 

If a request is submitted after the final filing date, every effort will be made, but it may not be possible to arrange accommodation in time to take the exam. If you have questions or need assistance, contact the Disability Compliance Office at (916) 874-7642 (CA Relay Service 711) or email DCO@saccounty.gov.

All tentative testing dates are listed in the job announcement. Candidates may be rescheduled only for religious or disability reasons and County employees may be rescheduled for military commitments. 

Please contact our office before the final filing date and ask to speak to the Technician in charge of that exam to explain your situation. Documentation may be requested. 

For any other questions or accommodation requests for exams please contact our office by the final filing or cut-off date for the exam you have applied for.

Depending on the knowledge, skills, and abilities required of the position, the Civil Service examination may consist of one or more of the following:

  • Evaluation of training and experience on a Supplemental Questionnaire (if required)
  • Written examination (multiple choice)
  • Oral examination (before a multiple person interview panel)
  • Performance examination
  • Physical agility test (for some safety positions)

The type of exam given for a particular position is outlined under the “Application and Testing Information” section on the job announcement. Notification of each written, oral, performance, or physical agility examination will be by mail or email approximately two (2) weeks prior to the exam. If you do not receive notification two days prior to the examination, please call our office. It is the responsibility of each applicant to ensure that the County of Sacramento is notified of any changes to your email address.​

Formula Rate (Training and Experience Evaluation) – An evaluation of a candidate’s education, training, and experience in response to the supplemental questionnaire. Responses to supplemental questions are rated according to structured guidelines prepared by the exam development analyst and Subject Matter Experts. This is the examination and how your score and rank is determined. 

  • Written (Job Knowledge) – Tests for both basic and technical knowledge required for the position and other job-related characteristics, such as reading comprehension, spelling, punctuation, grammar, mathematical abilities. Written exams can be multiple choice, true-false and/or fill-in-the blank questions that are designed to measure knowledge and abilities related to the class. It is the most cost-effective device when dealing with a large applicant group, and there is evidence that validity is typically strong. 
  • Structured Oral Interview Exam– A face to face examination, where panel members ask structured questions to each candidate and rate the responses according to guidelines prepared by the exam development Subject Matter Experts. These interviews typically consist of 9 to 15 structured questions, and may include an advanced written exercise, oral presentation, role play, etc. This is not a job interview; rather an examination to test a candidate’s knowledge, skills, and abilities.
  • Performance – The applicant is required to perform some aspect of the job. Examples of a performance exam include: a typing test, a driving test, identifying different types of plants, etc. 

Each of these exams is developed in order to establish an eligible list. The standardized exam process is separate and distinct from the selection or hiring interview process. Items such as resumes and letters of reference are not factors considered during the standardized exam process.

All tests are job-related and test the knowledge, skills and abilities outlined in the class specification for that particular position. To prepare, read the job description, duties, knowledge and ability sections on the class specification, then study the material you feel would directly or indirectly relate to the necessary knowledge, skills, or abilities. 

For example, if two of the requirements for a position are performing mathematical calculations and interpreting regulations, some of the exam questions will probably cover math and reading comprehension. 

You may find class specifications by going to our Job Opportunities web page​​ and clicking on the ‘Class Specs’ link on the left side of the page.

After all examinations are completed, the candidates who passed all of the steps will receive written notice of their examination results by email. Candidates passing will be placed on an eligible list for hire according to the score and rank obtained. This process can take up to six weeks to complete. Candidates failing to achieve a passing score will receive an email notice that they were not successful in the examination process. 

Sacramento County does not give scores for individuals who receive these notices. Examination materials are not eligible for review because they are standardized exams. Department(s) that have vacancies will request a copy of the eligible list to start their interview process. They will contact selected applicants directly. They can interview anyone in the top three ranks and there can be more than one person in each rank. 

It is important that your contact information is current so that you receive communications regarding job openings. If you have a change in address, email or phone number, you may update this information by logging into your account at www.governmentjobs.com​.

If you submitted a hard copy application and do not have an online account, please contact our office at (916) 874-5593.

Once the eligibility list is certified to the department for final interview/selection, the Employment Services Division is unaware of the scheduling. To fill a current vacancy, departments will usually contact selected candidates within a matter of days. However, there are occasionally circumstances where it may be weeks between certification and the department interviews. You may be contacted for an interview when the department sets the schedule. In some cases not all candidates on an eligible list are contacted for an interview. 

Of course, if you have moved since the beginning of the recruitment process, or you have had a change of address, email or phone number, you should update your account online or notify the Employment Services Division immediately when the change takes place. Otherwise, notifications to you may be lost.

An eligible list is comprised of all the candidates that passed the Civil Service exam process. They are placed on the list according to their score and ranking for that particular exam. The department(s) can interview anyone in the top three ranks and there can be more than one person in each rank. Individuals are encouraged to be on as many eligible lists as possible to maximize their employment opportunity with the County of Sacramento.

As people are hired from the eligibility list, ranks are cleared. Clearing a rank means that each person in a particular rank was either hired or inactive. As ranks are cleared, the department can interview individuals farther down on the list.

Yes. The County of Sacramento gives veterans preference points in open recruitments. You will receive 5 points for being a veteran, and 10 points if you are a qualifying disabled veteran. Such preference shall only apply to the first appointment in any permanent County position. In order to receive these points, you must have served in the US military during war time or conflict and your discharge must be classified as “honorable.” Additionally, you must provide a copy of your DD214 and, if applicable, a copy of your disability award letter.

For open recruitments: The life span of the list normally varies from one year to three years, depending on the position. Lists may be cancelled earlier than one year if there are less than three candidates remaining. Lists may be extended from the initial expiration date of one year at the request of any department who may be utilizing the list. 

For continuous recruitments: The lists for continuous recruitments are valid for one year. 

List dates are the dates indicated on your ranking notices.

You can request that your name be re-activated to the list by sending the request in writing to the Employment Services Division at DPSE-Certs@SacCounty.gov​.

Positions are put on continuous file for a number of reasons. The position can have high turnover, there are numerous positions utilized Countywide, hard to recruit for, etc.

Continuous file lists are always changing, with people being removed and added continuously. Due to the nature of some positions, there are periods of frequent hires followed by periods of inactivity. If you are still interested in pursuing the position, you are encouraged to reapply.

If you receive an interest letter, be sure to respond before the deadline indicated on the notice. Make sure a permanent position is being offered if that is what you are looking for. Be sure that you know the time and place you should appear for the interview, to whom you should report to for the interview, how long the interview is scheduled to last, and the job for which you are being considered. Eligibility lists may be used by more than one department; therefore, the Employment Services Division may not know who contacted you. It is important to get all necessary information when you are contacted for an interview. 

Research the department, section and positions that are associated with your interview. Make sure to review and have copies of your application or resume as well as the job announcement. Be prepared to discuss how your training and/or work experience relate to the position for which you are interviewing. During the interview, listen carefully to the questions. Your answer should cover everything you feel your interviewer needs to know to evaluate you fairly.

Conditional job offers are made "pending" a physical examination/questionnaire, background check and possible urine drug screening. If you are working when you receive a conditional job offer from the County of Sacramento, DO NOT quit your job until you have been instructed to do so. The County of Sacramento complies with the Immigration Control and Reform Act of 1986. If offered a position, you will be required to present identification and/or work authorization paperwork. Only documents identified in law or regulation are acceptable. 

After you have been offered and have accepted a position, be sure that you understand when you will begin, where and to whom you will report to on the first day, and whether there are any other steps the hiring department would like you to take before starting work. Be sure to get the telephone number of the person who contacted you for hire in case you have further questions.

When you are selected your name will be removed from the eligibility list for that position. Your name will remain on any other eligibility list you may be on for the specified life of the list. If you would like to be removed from the other eligibility lists, please notify the Employment Services Division.

If you are not immediately successful in getting a position, your name will remain on the eligibility list for consideration. You may be considered for any vacancies that occur during the life of the list. If you do not receive a job offer during the life of the list, then you must wait for that position to have another recruitment period before reapplying. 

It is a good idea to keep your final rank email notice(s). This way you will know what eligibility lists you are on. If you are unable to attend an interview, contact the interviewing department. 

You may decline to interview with a particular department or for a particular position and still remain on the eligibility list for that classification.

Once the eligibility list is certified to a department for final interview/selection, the Employment Services Division is unaware of the scheduling of interviews, the selection, or the notification of remaining candidates until we receive the certification list back from the department with the application material from the candidates who were not chosen. 

Notices to candidates advising that the position has been filled will be sent directly from the department involved, not from the Employment Services Division.
