An eligible list is a list of applicants who have passed all parts of the examination and can be considered for employment based on their scores.
Generally the top three ranks (highest scores) of an eligible list are considered reachable and will be contacted first. You can determine your rank by going to the State Personnel Board's Eligible List Disclosure page. If you are in Rank 1, 2, or 3, you may immediately begin applying for job openings/vacancies in which you are interested. Please do not call the State Personnel Board to obtain information on your ranking. The State Personnel Board is unable to tell candidates their exact rank on the eligible list. It is important to note that your ranking may change daily. This is due in large part to exams being administered on a continuous basis with candidates merging on and off the lists on a regular basis. Ranking also changes as a result of individuals being hired from the list, being placed inactive on the list, transferring on or off the list, and tenure/timebase and location preferences.
