The COS application has space to list 12 job histories and I have more than 12. How should I list my work history?
Your work history listed on your COS application will be reviewed to determine if you meet the minimum requirements for job classes by the Personnel Cabinet. It may also be used by agencies to make decisions in their recruiting efforts. With that in mind, you should include any work history that pertains to the type of experience required to qualify for future job classes. For example, an applicant may have been a lifeguard in high school 20 plus years ago. If the applicant does not apply to any positions for which this experience would be needed to qualify, they would not need to list it on their application. Applicants may also use the space at the end of the job history portion of the application, called “skills and abilities” to list additional work history. Applicants should list dates of employment and average hours per week worked in association with any specific work history listed in this box.
