List
Look up a job title or an agency
Search any civil service title or city agency. A title shows every list for it, how far down each list the city has sent names to agencies, which agencies got them, provisional employees, how many people hold the title and its past lists. An agency shows its promotional lists, the open lists it has drawn names from, its provisional employees and its certifications by year.
How a civil service list works
Most city jobs are in the competitive class: to hold one permanently, you take an exam and get hired off the ranked list it produces. These are the stages, with how many lists sit at each today.
