Because many job opportunities within New Jersey State, County and Municipal governments require a competitive testing or application process, applying for these jobs can be confusing. The State of New Jersey Department of Personnel can help make your transition into state government employment as smooth as possible. They have provided this step-by-step guide to the job announcement and application process to aid in your understanding. 

When beginning the application process, it is very important that your application is complete; a review and evaluation of your application may be the sole basis for determining your eligibility and ranking on an eligible list.

Please keep in mind that you must meet all the requirements in the Job Announcement as of the closing date.
