Continuous Testing for Flexibly Staffed Classes. Employees in a flexible staffed job series which have been determined by the Director of Human Resources as appropriate for continuous testing may apply for promotion to the next higher classification level as follows: Applicants must file the regular Human Resources Department Application for Examination Form and where applicable, the appropriate supplemental questionnaire with the Human Resources Department. The first Friday in each month is the filing deadline for any candidate who meets the minimum qualifications at any time during that month. The names of accepted applicants will be placed on the eligible list by the first working day of the following month. Employees who file applications must notify their supervisor and their departmental personnel officer. Nothing contained in this section shall be construed as making a promotion automatic or automatically effective on the first of the month following the filing of an application. It is the responsibility of the Department that wishes to promote employees in flexibly staffed positions to submit a personnel request (certification request) prior to the first day of the month in which they wish to promote the employee. Personnel requests for promotion of employees to become effective on the first of the month must be in the Human Resources Department by the last working day of the prior month.
