Section 249.1.1 - Job Announcements(a) Each job announcement shall provide all of the following information: (1) Title of classification. (A) When the appointing power is considering more than one classification type to fill a vacancy, the job announcement shall specify each classification being considered, including appropriated classifications.(2) The types of eligibility being considered (e.g., list eligibility; transfer; training and development; LEAP; SROA; and reemployment eligibility).(4) Minimum qualifications and preferred or desirable qualifications, if any.(5) The duty statement(s) that most accurately reflects the duties to be fulfilled for each position being considered for the job vacancy.(6) A statement informing applicants that dates printed on envelopes by mobile barcodes or equivalent mobile print technology are not acceptable proof of the date the application and any other required documents or materials were filed.(7) Clear instructions for filing application forms and any other required documents or materials.(8) Equal employment opportunity and drug free statements that comply with applicable federal and state laws, including executive orders.(9) The final filing date for applications. The job vacancy may be advertised as "until filled." Where a position is advertised as "until filled," the appointing power may have periodic cutoff dates for submitting applications and other required materials provided the cutoff dates are included on the job announcement and comply with the requirements of section 249.2. Internal cutoff periods or dates that are not included on the job announcement are prohibited.(10) Any additional information the appointing power deems proper.(b) Job vacancy announcements may state or use words to the effect of the following: "Using the online application system as specified in the announcement is the preferred method of applying for civil service job opportunities; however, applicants may apply by way of U.S. mail, parcel delivery or courier service, or in person, as set forth in this announcement."(c) If the position advertised is limited term, the appointing power shall specify the expected duration of the limited term appointment in the job announcement.(d) The hiring authority may advertise multiple vacant positions within different units on the same job announcement when the positions are of the same classification(s). In these instances, the appointing power shall provide a description of each unit and all relevant duty statements.(e) Where job announcements advertise a vacancy or vacancies as a limited-term position with the possibility of converting to a permanent appointment at a later date, the limited-term employee may be appointed to the position as a permanent civil service employee without a new selection process provided that the employee was eligible for permanent appointment at either the time of the limited-term appointment or at the time of the conversion and SROA and Reemployment for the permanent appointment were cleared at the time of the limited-term appointment or the time of the conversion. If the announcement does not include such notice, the appointing power shall conduct a fair and competitive selection process in accordance with civil service laws and rules. Nothing herein shall be construed as requiring the appointing power to hire a limited-term employee as a permanent employee.(f) Nothing specified in this section shall be construed to prevent appointing powers from requiring applicants to file certain required documents or materials via U.S. mail or parcel delivery or courier service, where appropriate (e.g., certified transcripts directly from a school, college, or university, completed fingerprints, certified court documents, or rehabilitation documents).Cal.
