NY Helps: This title is part of the New York Hiring for Emergency Limited Placement Statewide Program (NY Helps).
For
the duration of the NY Helps Program, this title maybe filled via a
non-competitive appointment, which means no examination is required but
all candidates must meet the minimum qualifications of the title for
which they apply (see minimum qualifications above). At this time,
agencies may recruit and hire employees by making temporary
appointments. In May 2024, if a temporary NY Helps employee is
satisfactorily performing in the position, the appointment will be
changed from temporary pending Civil Service Commission Action to
permanent non-competitive and the official probationary period will
begin.
At a future date (within one year of
permanent appointment), it is expected employees hired under NY Helps
will have their non-competitive employment status converted to
competitive status, without having to compete in an examination.
Employees will then be afforded with all of the same rights and
privileges of competitive class employees of New York State. While
serving permanently in a NY Helps title, employees may take part in any
promotion examination for which they are qualified.
