List Order
Hire employees from your certified list in this order, which is the order in which names should appear:
- NextSTEP
- Reemployment
- Subdivisional
- Departmental
- General
- Surplus/SROA
- Promotional
- Open
Technically, appointments from surplus/SROA lists are transfers, not list appointments. Surplus/SROA employees take precedence over all promotional and open list appointments. (See Government Code Sections 19052 and 19054.)
Hiring Department Responsibilities
- publish job bulletins
- request the certified list
- send contact letters
- remove non-responsive employees from surplus/SROA lists
- verify employees are surplus/SROA
- clear lists
