The State of Montana has a decentralized personnel system. There is no central recruitment or testing. Recruitment and selection are handled by the individual state agencies.

State job openings and application materials may be found on the State of Montana Employment Information Website a web site devoted entirely to State of Montana job opportunities. These listings are also available at Montana Workforce Service offices. Additionally, some agencies have a public bulletin board where job openings are posted.

In addition to job openings found on the State of Montana Employment Information Website, you may check classified ads in major Montana newspapers for some job openings. Ads usually appear on Wednesdays and Sundays.
