Overview
This bill changes the rules for hiring and promotion within New Jersey’s Civil Service system. Currently, hiring officials must select from the top three most qualified candidates. This legislation expands that selection to include the top five eligible candidates, while still considering veterans’ preference. The goal is to provide more flexibility for appointing authorities to fill positions effectively.
