Permanent Appointments

Everyone appointed to a permanent civil service position must take part in a Civil Service Examination process. This could be in the form of an examination or a register process. If you are successful, your name is placed on an “eligible list” in rank order based on the score you achieved in the process. In some cases, this eligible list could be used to fill vacant positions in other city departments as well in the Controller’s Office. The list has an expiration date. The expiration dates of the lists can vary for a number of reasons.

The Controller’s Office serves as a decentralized examination unit for the City and County of San Francisco providing Civil Service examinations and “eligible lists” for the Accounting, Auditing and some high level Payroll classifications.

Provisional Appointments

If there is no current active eligible list available for a classification, or no plans for a civil service examination in the near future, you may be able to apply for open positions that are considered to be provisional appointments. This means that sometime after your provisional appointment, you will be required to take part in a civil service examination process in order to give you an opportunity to attain permanent status in that classification.

Exempt Appointments

Occasionally, under certain circumstances, positions are created that are exempt from the competitive Civil Service Process and serve at pleasure of the appointing officer.
