Promotional announcements are open only to those working in a classified City of New Orleans Civil Service position. Usually applicants need permanent status in these positions. However, in some cases, only probationary status is required. Regardless, to apply for a promotional position, you must be working in a lower job classification than the one for which you are applying. If you are working in a higher job classification and are interested in applying for a promotional position in a lower classification, check with the appointing authority about a voluntary demotion.

It is important that your application show all the relevant education and experience you possess.  Applications may be rejected if incomplete.  Resumes cannot be submitted in lieu of an application. Please review our General Information and Requirements page.

Thank you for your interest in employment with the City of New Orleans.
