What if a job requires a typing test?
If a typing test is required for the vacancy for which you are applying, you must provide verification of your typing score PRIOR to the closing date of the vacancy. If you fail to do this, your name will not be referred out on the applicant vacancy list. Other things to note about typing tests: • Check the vacancy posting for the typing speed required for the position. • You need only submit a typing score once; this score will be kept on file for two years. • Permanent state employees currently working in a typing job class do not need to take a new typing test.
