Eligible for reassignment, transfer, reachable for appointment from the appropriate eligible list or must meet the following qualifications:

Promotion Qualifications: must be a qualified employee of New York State and have had one year of permanent competitive or 55-b/55-c service as:

Either A. Assistant Purchasing Agent;
Or
B. Office Assistant 3 (Calculations)

This title is part of the New York Hiring for Emergency Limited Placement Statewide Program (NY HELPS).

Open Competitive Qualifications: A bachelor's degree and two years of purchasing experience.

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. 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 complete 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.

Duties Description Duties to be discussed at time of interview.

Additional Comments Working hours to be discussed at time of interview.

Some positions may require additional credentials or a background check to verify your identity.
