BACKGROUND INVESTIGATION, DRUG TESTING AND FINGERPRINTING: According to Civil Service Law and/or policy of this Commission, a background investigation (which may include a polygraph examination), substance abuse screening and fingerprint check is required. Each candidate will be required to provide a waiver and release permitting the Commission to disclose to the candidates current employer any positive test results. The Division of Criminal Justice Services requires each fingerprint search request to be accompanied by a fee. This fee must be submitted by the candidate. The fee is usually $76.25. The refusal of any candidate to submit the required fee shall, in itself, disqualify a candidate from being placed on an eligible list for certification. You will be instructed at the appropriate time when and how to submit payment.
NOTE: CONVICTION OF A FELONY OR A MISDEMEANOR MAY BAR APPOINTMENT.
MEDICAL AND PHYSICAL FITNESS: Candidates who pass both the written examination and the background investigation (including a fingerprint check) will, after a conditional offer of employment, be scheduled for the Comprehensive Medical Evaluation, the Physical Fitness Screening Test, the Psychological Evaluation, and any other tests deemed necessary including substance abuse screening. A MEDICAL EXAMINATION FEE OF $100.00 IS REQUIRED. CANDIDATES WILL BE INSTRUCTED AT THE APPROPRIATE TIME WHEN AND HOW TO SUBMIT PAYMENT. FAILURE TO APPEAR FOR A SCHEDULED TEST OR EVALUATION, OR FAILURE TO SUBMIT THE $100.00 MEDICAL EXAMINATION FEE AT THE REQUIRED TIME, WILL RESULT IN ELIMINATION FROM COMPETITION FOR THIS POSITION. CANDIDATES WHO ARE NOT SUCCESSFUL IN ANY PART OF THIS EXAMINATION WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED FOR FURTHER EXAMINATION. THE MEDICAL REQUIREMENTS MUST BE MET AT THE TIME OF MEDICAL EXAMINATION.

FAILURE TO NOTIFY THIS COMMISSION OF AN ADDRESS/EMAIL CHANGE IN A TIMELY FASHION MAY CAUSE THE CANDIDATE TO MISS EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES OR BE DISQUALIFIED.
THE NASSAU COUNTY CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSION reserves the right to reject for lateness or to accept applications filed after the advertised filing period. The number of candidates who will be permitted to sit for the examination may be limited in the discretion of the Civil Service Commission. Therefore, candidates are advised to apply early.

GENERAL INFORMATION
1. APPLYING: Inquiries should be directed to the Executive Director, Nassau County Civil Service Commission. The Commission does not accept responsibility for non-delivery or delivery delays of emails due to issues with your email account. The Commission reserves the right to reject for lateness or to accept applications filed after the advertised filing period.
2. TRAINING AND EXPERIENCE: The burden of establishing qualifications to the satisfaction of the Commission shall be upon the applicant. For the purpose of meeting the training and experience requirement of any examination, no credits shall be given for any work experience which is determined by the Commission to have been gained or acquired in violation of the provisions of the Civil Service Law.
Where required, certificates, licenses, and military separation papers (DD214) must be submitted with your application. Proof of claimed education, (copy of your high school diploma, Military, GED, New York State or comparable Equivalency Diploma) may be required to be submitted with the application. If education beyond high school is required, official transcripts must be submitted directly to us by the school.
College education is considered at the rate of 30 credits completed per year.
For open competitive qualifications only, paid experience, if other than on a full time basis will be prorated.
Volunteer experience may be accepted if verifiable, and the experience claimed must have been in a structured program. Documentation signed by an official of the agency indicating hours per week, level of work, etc. must be provided.
Where additional experience may be substituted for an academic degree/diploma, the interpretation of the note, generally, is that for a full substitution, the underlying educational requirement for a Master’s degree must be a Bachelor’s degree; for a Bachelor’s degree, it must be a High School Diploma/High School Equivalency Diploma; for a High School Diploma, it must be satisfactory completion of tenth or eighth grade education, as appropriate.
3. THE EXAMINATION: The Commission reserves the right, after this announcement is issued, to subdivide the examination and/or require a specific passing mark in one or more of such subdivisions in order that a candidate be considered further for eligibility. Notice of such arrangement will be given in the examination instructions.
A record of disrespect for the requirements and processes of law, including repeated traffic offenses or disregard of summonses for traffic offenses, is grounds for disqualification for examination, or after examination, for certification and appointment.
Examinations prepared and rated by the New York State Department of Civil Service will be in accordance with Section 23-2 of the Civil Service Law.
Examinations prepared and rated by the Nassau County Civil Service Commission will be in accordance with the rules and regulations of this Commission.
4. ELIGIBLE LISTS, PLACEMENT, AND ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR APPOINTMENT TO CERTAIN POSITIONS:
Vacancies: Eligible lists resulting from examinations may be limited to a sufficient number of passing candidates to fill vacancies. Additional candidates may be processed for certification from the lists as the need arises.
All eligible lists shall be established for four years unless the Executive Director deems it appropriate to expire an eligible list before the end of the four-year term from establishment.
Candidates must be psychologically and physically fit to perform the duties required for the position. Medical or psychological examination may be required.
When there is a need for employees to fill vacancies on a part time basis the eligible list may be canvassed for that purpose.
Changing conditions occasionally result in certification and offers of employment at higher or lower salaries than those announced.
Special Requirement for Appointment to CERTAIN positions in School Districts and BOCES: Per Chapter 180 of the Laws of 2000, and by Regulations of the Commissioner of Education, to be employed in a position designated by a school district or BOCES as involving direct contact with students, a clearance for employment from the State Education Department is required. If you are considered for such a position, you will be instructed at the appropriate time as to your responsibilities in this clearance process (if fingerprinting is required, there may be an additional fee which you may be responsible for).
FINGERPRINTING REQUIREMENT FOR APPOINTMENT TO CERTAIN POSITIONS: In compliance with various laws, appointment to certain positions may require candidates to undergo a fingerprint check for the purpose of a criminal history record check. If you are considered for such a position, you will be instructed at the appropriate time as to where/when such fingerprinting will take place (you may be responsible for paying applicable fingerprinting fees).
5. ADDITIONAL CREDITS: VETERAN’S CREDITS (as defined in Section 6 of article 5 of the New York State Constitution): A veteran may be granted additional credits to be added to a passing score of an examination, as follows:
Non Disabled Vet: Open Competitive Exam: 5 points; Promotion Exam: 2.5 points
Disabled Vet: Open Competitive Exam: 10 points; Promotion Exam: 5 points
The veteran must have: served on full-time active duty for purposes other than training; been honorably discharged or released under honorable circumstances. In addition, beginning January 1, 1998, the NYS Constitution allows members of the US Armed Forces who are on active duty the right to request extra War Time Veterans credits on civil service examinations. Veteran’s credit may be requested for each examination until actually used, for appointment from a list. Credits may be used (the veteran was permanently appointed or promoted as a result of receiving the additional credits) once, with the following exception:
If non-disabled veterans credits have previously been used to obtain an appointment or promotion, for eligible lists established after January 1, 2014, disabled veterans may be entitled to additional credits on a civil service examination if they have used non-disabled veterans credits to obtain an appointment or promotion with New York State or a local government, and subsequent to such use, they have been determined by the United States Department of Veterans Affairs (“VA”; formerly known as the United States Veterans Administration) to be a qualified disabled veteran, as defined in the New York State Civil Service Law. In such cases, the disabled veteran shall be entitled to apply for and use 10 credits on New York State and local open competitive and promotion examinations, minus the number of non-disabled credits he or she has previously used. The additional credits can only be used once.
SECTIONS 85-A & 85-B: In conformance with sections 85-a and 85-b of the Civil Service Law, (85-a)children of firefighters and police officers killed in the line of duty and (85-b) siblings of firefighters and police officers having died in the performance of duty as a natural and proximate result of either the World Trade Center attack on September 11, 2001 or in the subsequent rescue effort, shall be entitled to receive an additional ten points in a competitive examination for original appointment in the same municipality in which his or her parent/sibling has served. If you are qualified to participate in this examination and meet one of the above criteria, please answer “yes” to the appropriate question in your application for examination. A candidate claiming such credit has a minimum of two months from the application deadline to provide the necessary documentation to verify additional credit eligibility. However, no credit may be added after the eligible list has been established. The text of these sections of law is available at our public counter at 40 Main Street, Hempstead, NY, as well as on our web site at www.nassaucivilservice.com Show more details...
