Good luck 👍🏼

I just finished a PhD in Linguistics with a specialization in sociolinguistics. I have data science experience and professional experience working with innocence project cases, teaching in prison, and working with affordable housing clients at private companies. I also have experience running surveys. But the job description mentions an “appropriate social science” as part of the requirements and I can’t tell if this fits since my degrees aren’t in like psychology, social work, or something more directly related to civil service per se. All of my degrees are “of Arts,” not MSW, or MSc. Should I still apply?

Once DCAS certifies a list for an agency, what has to happen before the cert expiration date? The agency has to reach out to some of the candidates certified with the hiring pool invitation or agency has to hold the hiring pool by the cert expiration date?

For anyone familiar with the NYC Law Department hiring process, I have a question about starting salary.

I was quoted a starting salary of $117,000, but the Law Department’s website lists a salary range of $122,300–$137,188 for attorneys with 5–10 years of post-law-school legal experience.

Does coming from another NYC government agency affect the starting salary or salary classification for a lateral attorney? I thought the starting salary was based on the published experience range, but now I’m wondering whether there are other factors that could explain why the quoted salary is lower.

I’m also unsure whether to ask Legal Recruitment for clarification before receiving an official offer or wait until an offer is extended. We discussed salary and potential start dates during my second interview, but I don’t know whether I should address it as a clarification in my thank-you email or wait to see if I receive an offer.

Has anyone else recently received a letter from HMS asking for proof of dependents? I got a letter requesting to submit my marriage certificate and my child’s birth certificate, otherwise failing to submit proof will result in termination of their city health insurance coverage. Haven’t been working for the city for long, but this is the first they are requesting this information.

What’s everyone’s experience with the PPO health insurance? Currently under husband NYPD health insurance with metroplus.
We have a two child , and they will be travel and stay with our in-laws out of state here and there.

Wanted to know if the PPO is good for us since it offer out of state regular visits, as long as they are in network.

I was offered a salary increase at my current title Clerical Associate IV which I am thankful and grateful for, my uncertainty is if I accept this salary increase when I get called to a hiring pool for Staff Analyst and hired would my pending salary increase for Clerical Associate IV delay or affect like slow down the process to become a Staff Analyst?
Sorry if I didn’t explain correctly so my question is if I should just wait on the Staff Analyst title to come through by attending the hiring pool and getting selected not taking the salary increase or take the salary increase regardless because it won’t affect being hired as Staff Analyst?

Does DCAS allow candidates to reschedule their Protest Review Session due to work commitment?

Hi,

Completely independent of if it is "smart" to do so - is it possible to have a QPP, TDA, AND Roth as a NYC teacher?

Does anyone have advice/stories on how to move from city planner to admin city planner without the exam, since it's not offered often? Currently City Planner Level 3 but technically supervise no one. Thanks!

Outside of the nyc gov website https://cityjobs.nyc.gov how do city employees apply for jobs? It seems like none of the agencies respond to those applications in the past we were able to apply through ess I’ve been with the city since 2018 and been with my current agency for 3 going on 4 years and I’d like to venture out but I’ve gotten no luck with interviews as of late

So far, I have no heard very many good things on reddit bout it. But doubt if was doing well ppl would hop on here nd share their positive experience. So please let me know if you had been there.

I've sent so many that seem to go nowhere - are these positions that typically have candidates preselected? Talking program director, coordinator, "manager" - curious to hear people's thoughts. RIFs and durable pandemic funding has left an influx of managers without programs and just curious about future opportunities in civil service

Got invited to the hiring pool on Friday, November 6. Only have 5 years experience tutoring children.

No prior social services experience. What kind of questions will they ask and what kind of answers should I have ready?

I hope this doesn't break the rules about exams, please delete if so and I apologize.

I took an exam over the summer and passed with a tentative score in the high 70s. Now I've applied for jobs with that title and got an interview (they know my score). What happens if I get hired?

I am new to govt. work so struggling to understand how it works exactly.

I assume many people got much higher scores than me, so when the official list comes out, do they have to fire me and hire someone off the list? Or can they keep me if they want to?

They can't make me permanent if there are dozens of higher scores than mine, right? Or is there a way?

Hello!

Currently live in Orange County, and was hoping to get input from other workers who live upstate.

I'm having a hard time finding a pharmacy up here that takes our insurance, the locator tool on the union website has not been much help.

Any referrals in my part of the state would be appreciated, or I'll have to settle for locations by the office, thanks!

hi there- started 2 weeks ago and submitted all documents on my second day. nycaps still shows my enrollment as "pending" - just curious what the average wait time for enrollment is for nyce ppo?

I'm currently in the hiring process for a position with an organization that works with the NYC DOE. The job involves interacting with students and parents, so I was told that I would need to complete a DOE fingerprint background check.

Here's my situation:

Back in February 2016, I was arrested in Tempe, Arizona, for a misdemeanor domestic violence-related assault charge. However, the case was dismissed by the court later and I was never convicted.

I recently applied to have my Arizona criminal case records sealed, and my sealing petition was approved.

Before the sealing, I obtained my FBI Identity History Summary through fingerprinting, and both the arrest and the dismissal appeared on the report.

Now I'm concerned about how this might affect my employment.

I have a few questions:

1. Does anyone know what background check system NYC DOE currently uses? Is it through NYS DCJS, the FBI, or both?
2. Since my Arizona arrest record has been sealed, will it still show up on a DOE fingerprint background check?
3. Can NYC DOE still access sealed out-of-state arrest records, especially for positions involving students?
4. Even though the case was dismissed almost 10 years ago without a conviction, could it still affect my background clearance or final job offer?
5. Has anyone gone through a similar situation involving an old dismissed or sealed arrest record while applying for a DOE-related position?

I'm not applying to be a teacher or a direct DOE employee. The position is with an organization that works with DOE schools and families.

Open enrollment begins in November for employees and pre Medicare retirees.

I’ll post the show later after it’s recorded.

I've recently applied for multiple City Scientist positions, so far 5 applications in. But having just perused this subreddit I realized that government job resumes may require listing my past jobs/experience exhaustively, contrary to what I was advised to do when applying for private sector jobs. I had an impression I should only include the experience that is directly relevant to the job and to keep the resume at under 2 pages long. Also, since I've spent a considerable amount of time in grad schools over the past 10-15 years, there are also multiple employment gaps in my professional history (as I was deep in PhD research and international travel).

Is that true then that city hiring managers/HR would not look kindly on a tailored resume, no matter how (ir)relevant some experience may be for a given job description? If so, at that point, do I just submit my academic style CV that spans multiple pages for completeness?

And, any tips as to how to justify the school employment gaps to the HR, if they start being overly picky about it?

Frankly, I would find it easier submitting the same resume for every NYC Job I come across. I just thought I'd spare the hiring teams some time digging for what they need.

Thanks!

Does anyone know what the online vendor is that accepts GVS for vision? I thought it was 1800anylens but that website does not exist anymore.
