Current — January 1, 2015
As of January 1, 2011
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, persons retired from the United States military, honorably discharged from active military duty with a service-connected disability, or honorably discharged from active duty, shall be eligible to apply for promotional civil service examinations and career executive assignment examinations for which they meet the minimum qualifications of the class to which they seek appointment. Persons receiving passing scores shall gain list eligibility for appointment. In evaluating minimum qualifications, the person’s military experience shall be considered state civil service experience in a comparable class that has the same or substantially similar duties and responsibilities as the person’s position in the military.
(b) In cases where promotional examinations are given by more than one department for the same classification, the employee shall select one department in which to compete. Once this selection is made, it cannot be changed for the duration of the promotional list established from the examination in which the employee participated. Employees may transfer list eligibility between departments in the same manner as provided for civil service employees.
