The probationary period for administrative employees appointed from open-competitive and promotional civil service lists is typically one (1) year. Exceptions to this one-year probationary term are generally set forth in the Notice of Examination (NOE) announcing the examination that the employee took.
The probationary period for competitive employees is 26 weeks, except for some traineeships, where it runs the length of the training period. The probationary period for labor and non-competitive positions in the county is usually for a period of one year.
The feedback provided to an employee helps improve performance and skills and identify performance deficiencies. Probationary periods in state service are either six (6) or twelve (12) months, depending on the classification.
