Your journey to a job in city government starts here – and it requires you to take a civil service exam. Your score can qualify you for current available job openings related to the exam.
- Click on the arrow below to find the exam you want to take, which will begin your registration process.
- There is a fee to take an exam, which you will be asked to pay at the end of the registration, unless you have a waiver.
- Following registration, you should expect to receive a letter with the testing center address and date for your exam. Please ensure you provide your current address.
- If you pass the exam, you will be placed on a list.
- Depending on your score and available job openings in a particular title, City Agencies may call you off the list. Some jobs then require medical and other additional investigation.
