Annual City Council Report on Eligible List Utilization (Local Law 50 of 2004)
Use escrito dataset nyc.qjzt-ytn9
The Department of Citywide Administrative Services (DCAS) is responsible for administering civil service examinations and creating eligible lists, which consist of candidates who passed a civil service examination. In addition, after the administration of a promotional examination, DCAS establishes lists known as promotion lists, which are agency-specific and a type of eligible list. Eligible lists are available to each city agency with open positions in corresponding titles and are usually active for four years. These datasets report data on eligible lists that are established and appointments, promotions, and removals from eligible lists.
