Testing for most civil service
jobs happens only periodically and sometimes as little as once every two years.
An exam may consist of one test or a number of different tests. Note that
once you pass the test and you're on a civil service list, you'll be interviewed
to determine if you receive a job offer. Make the most of your opportunity
with the resources below.
Guides with reader recommendations are in bold.
The most often requested study
guides are listed below. If you don't see the guide that you're looking
for, enter the title of the job in the search box below.
