Most of the positions in Franklin County departments, towns, villages, school districts, special districts are filled by one of the criteria below.

 

Different jobs have different requirements. 

 

Some jobs require that you take an exam to be considered for a permanent job.  These are called COMPETITIVE positions.

 

There are three types of positions that have no exam requirements:

 

EXEMPT positions are those where the employer decides the qualifications of applicants and chooses the person they want to hire.  The process is similar to that found in private workplace.

 

NON-COMPETITIVE positions have specific education and experience requirements that you must meet.  Employers choose from among the qualified people who apply.

 

Labor positions have no requirements.  Employers may choose anyone for these jobs.

 

If you are interested in a testable or a non-testable position, you must complete the same application, available here from our website or our office at the address above.
