Candidates will not have to take an exam for this title. This is a Hiring Emergency Limited Placement (HELP) Program-

designated title. The HELP Program is a temporary program designed to help local government employers address current staff-

ing issues. Traditionally, the titles filled under the HELP Program required job candidates to compete in a competitive exam to be

considered for employment. For the duration of the program, this title will be classified as non-competitive and categorized as a

“HELP Program” position. At the close of the program, this position will revert to competitive class

status. Employees occupying positions filled through the HELP Program will be granted competitive class status without the need

to participate in a competitive exam.
